installation detail, photo: Jure Živković"soft objects" are the research of sound recording and reproduction in unexpected media. Sound installation consists of vertically placed papers that contact read, reproduce the sound of rotating paper with a blank printed (spiral) sound recordings. On the technical level the work functions by the principle of phonograph, paleophone, graphophone, phonautograph and contemporary gramophone - the sound is amplified through the membrane - vertical paper.
The work represents an experiment with a paper medium that reads an invisible soundtrack. It is the contraption of one-that-posseses and the one-who-transmits, silently, fragile, invisible, and extremely material.
"soft objects" with "coarse objects" are a series of works that deal with the question of how to record tone, voice, noise, and ambient sound images into unexpected materials and what features and characteristics each material and technique adds to the reproduced sound image.
