Solina Hi-Fi : Rotator



Rotator is a sound installation. 16 speakers hung at ear height, 16 discrete inputs.

The force of the sound in the centre is fairly intense, pressure waves from 360 degrees. Using a modular synth with 16 oscillators under voltage control combined with 16 voltage controlled amplifiers enables sound to be rotated in both directions simultaneously. Indeed each speaker can be addressed directly under voltage control. The source for this particular installation was a complex frequency modulated drone, slowly evolving into a rotating Risset tone.

In future we hope to use this system to create a more fractured acoustic space.
