minigit ohrenhoch-Version (2012, Premiere)
Spatial Sound Installation/-composition
by Andreas Trobollowitsch
minigit is a spatial Sound Installation originally for four acoustic guitars hanging on a wall. Adepted for the exhibition in ohrenhoch the installation will be conceived and realized for guitaleles. As shown in the following graphic each guitalele has just three strings:
I - - I - I - I I - I - I - I - - I - I -I I -
Based on a whole tone scale which leads from A to a´ each guitalele will be tuned individually. Four converted ventilators which use cello-bow hair instead of propellers set the strings into oscillation. Due to a different speed of each ventilator the patterns will change permanently. Soundscapes arise through the soft, smooth picking of the guitar strings by the circling cellobow hair, the permanently modifying overtone layers are reminiscent of an electronically generated sound aesthetic.
The installation minigit was created with the support of BMUKK Austria (Bundesministerium für Unterricht, Kunst und Kultur).
