Acousticks
2008
installation, temporary, with sound
8-channel
place: quartier 21, MQ, Museumsplatz 1, Vienna
exhibition: TONSPUR 23 für einen öffentlichen raum, 25.02.–31.05.2008,
MQ MuseumsQuartier Wien
»I have used a metronome in the past for different projects as a timing divice but never as an instrument on its own. The invitation by Georg Weckwerth and Peter Szely to make an eight channel sound tape to be installed in a passage of the MuseumsQuartier in Vienna seemed to me the perfect time and situation to create a work only for metronomes. While working on the concept I found out that the prototype of the metronome was built and patented in Vienna 1816 by Johann Nepomuk Mälzel – a wonderful coincidence for me. I chose to use for Acousticks a wooden metronome, beating eight of its measures from ›Largo‹ (40 beats a minute) through to ›Prestissimo‹ (208 beats a minute), one for each track, criculating in a counter clock wise pattern around the TONSPUR_passage, creating a ›virtuosic‹ pattern of sound. [Acousticks: Oxford English Dictionary, 1704: ›Medicines which help the hearing‹]«
