Jonáš Gruska, Axis Mundi Sound Distribution System
A performance exploring generative, algorithmic, or chaotic patterns, speaker choreography, psychoacoustic effects and ultrasonic parametric speakers via a custom built sound reproducing tower. Axis Mundi Sound Distribution System is an ever-evolving modular sculpture designed to emit, reflect, and direct (ultra)sonic waves to space from single axis between the Heaven and the Earth. It currently consists of seven or eight channels of rotating audio, a (sound) reflective plate, three motors, LED and UV illumination.
