![[LOGO] SONIC ATELIER – Comprehensive Architectural Acoustics Design & Research](images/Logo_sonicatelier2.png){kind=logo}
[A Kargel/Neuhaus production; 1-28 June 2003]
During a four week period in June 2003, we created a network of acoustic interactions at 22 public places (so-called "nodes") in the 700km long tri-state area between Schaffhausen in Switzerland and Linz in Austria, including parts of Southern Germany. At the center of this was a Sculptural Instrument we had developed, called monomobil, which consists of resonating metal and glass plates, and can be controlled from two live-electronics stations. The monomobil was conceived to interact with the specific sound of spaces, interior and exterior. Thus the atmosphere and acoustics of every place we visited became the basis of the live-electronic control of the instrument. Due to its physical properties the monomobil works like an acoustical lens which provided people – visitors and passers-by alike – with new "perspectives" of their acoustic environment.
"In one word: fascinating! ..."
Alfred Wüger in: Schaffhauser Nachrichten, June 3, 2003
Review of "mono 1/03""...what you created was so touching, joyful and – in combination with the whole surrounding – so large, that I see it as a testimony of vitality, chance, beauty. Of what is possible considering the limited time we are given."
