Concept & Devices
This project explores the space between the digital and the physical: an abstract landscape where reality and simulation overlap.
Using 3D printing, I modified and merged kitchen tools with custom-made controllers. A spoon, spatula, or hammer was cut and reconstructed, half object and half digital machine.
The 3D-printed part contains electronic interfaces, buttons, and sensors, transforming these daily tools into hybrid sound controllers.
Through this process, the familiar object of the kitchen becomes something strangely unfamiliar, both a memory of daily life and a digital device. Is the technology imitating nature? Or is it revealing new forms of hybrid reality through sound, gesture, and material?
Interactive HTML Sound Game
Parallel to the physical instruments, I made a series of sound-experiment webpages using HTML and JavaScript. These digital environments extend the concept of play and improvisation into the browser space.
Through interaction, visitors can trigger, combine, and manipulate sounds, exploring the boundary between code and composition. These controllers link directly to these webpages, creating a dialogue between the tangible and the virtual.
Together, these environments form a sound quilt, a patchwork of digital gestures, physical tools, and abstract sound.
Live Performance & Sound Experiment
I made several "Noise Kitchen" performance using these custom controllers and web-based sound systems built in HTML.
At Snackbar Freida, I "cooked" with sound using the modified kitchen tools as instruments in an abstract culinary act.
At Klankschool, I performed behind a television screen, where the audience experienced only the abstract HTML interface and the generated sound. The digital interface became an improvisation between body, code, and sound.
