INSTALLATIONS

FLUID PROCESS

AS EXPERIENCED AT: Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festival, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Autodesk Boston Technology Center

An interactive installation that allows music to be made with falling water. Users control the rhythm of falling water on an iPad, or change the sound of the droplets by changing the materials set below the valves. A feature at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (Winter 2020) allows drummers to control the valves of Fluid Process in real-time, simply by playing their physical drumkit.

 

PLAYER FENCE

as experienced at: Governors Ball, Newport Folk Festival, Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festival, Boston Children’s Museum, Cambridge Crossing

Player-Fence is a musical fence that can “play itself”, similar to a player-piano. The installation combines physical and electronic interaction, allowing users to play its 120 aluminum chimes either with mallets, or via iPad interfaces. Bryce Dessner of The National and members of Bon Iver have performed original music on Player-Fence at the Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festival in 2018.

 

Musical Fence

As experienced at: Boston Children’s Museum

An outdoor, year-long installation of two musical fences on the boardwalk of Boston Children’s Museum. Kevin Hart plays these fences in a scene in his upcoming film, Fatherhood. His fictional film scene was inspired by real life; an impromptu, pick-up music-making session between a father and daughter.
