Satellites

2011, Surround soundscape, speakers, Multichannel Sound interface, Computer

A digital surround sound installation, in which actual recorded sounds of satellites move in their orbits around the viewer.

Our life is literally surrounded by satellites, we can view satellite photos from the internet and find a way to a new place we havent visited yet. Our cars, mobile phones and televisions communicate with satellites. They are an abstract form of communication, since they are hard to see with a naked eye. Yet they have become more and more important to our society and daily life. They are also a tool of free information in countries, where the current government halts the access to information from their own citizens.

This artwork has been shown in Walden Kunstaustellungen, Berlin; Westwerk, Hamburg and Ping 12 documentation, Kassel, Germany. All in 2012
