Sound Disc

Sound Disc comprises of countless sound dots distinguished by its different volumes. It symbolizes the complex information flow of the digital era, which, ironically, is based on the simple binary system of zeroes and ones. The random sound dots correspond with an image, which when viewed from afar appears to be static. Yet each image contains within itself innumerable dots of sound, dashing and flowing back and forth.
“Computer data have become an integral part of our lives. For whatever reason, if the hardware is damaged, albeit there is no actual harm to our bodies, we experience some sort of trauma akin to memory loss or loss of brain function.”
Inspired by humanity’s computer complex, and a feeling of loss for broken hardware, Sound Disc expresses our attempts to capture lost memories and regrets. The work is created using a feedback-generating device equipped with microphones and computer voice coils to repeat playback and pauses.
