“TiNT” for Stairs
2009
audio-visual installation

This is part of the “TiNT” series, which is an automatic system for site-specific audio-visuals. It is based on the concept that stairs are a space that exists between two different floors, and that the structure of the staircases can be viewed as an accumulation of boxes. Passengers’ movements generate sounds and montages of images and texts.

In mathematics, ambient space is that which surrounds mathematically meaningful objects. In this piece, audiences can shift into an acoustically ambient space in which they feel comfortable.

audio-visual installation | performance

This is an audio-visual installation and live performance based on Kiwan Sung’s poem “Your Text”. In this work, the text is segmented into words and automatically reorganized in different ways, thereby conveying different meanings. Pre-recorded video clips are sliced and recombined according to reorganized texts, and corresponding sound effects are generated as well.
