FLAT

Kaisu Koski, with whom we worked earlier on the '4:3' project invited z25 to help her realize her new project called 'Flat'. 'Flat' is a live installation. The user is invited to listen to intimate sounds of the secret lives of people living closely together in a building.

Z25 build a system to control 24 speakers individualy. The system allowed the operator (Kaisu) to control when and with what sample a speaker was triggered on or off. Another part of the system is that a lightbulb is turned on/off when a speaker is on/off. By building a fairly flexible system we provided Kaisu with a enviorment to experiment with different audio composition's. The complexity in this project was the usage of many different kinds of software; Flash, PureData, OSC protocol to manage and control all systems.
