Performance on 8.7.24 19.30Uhr @Raumschiff
//
Rotation is a performative installation which takes as its starting point the simple rotational movement of sound emitting objects. Spark gaps, loudspeakers and other sound objects are hung in different places around the performance space. Each object is set into rotational motion using simple electro-mechanical methods. Once set into motion, these simple sonic mechanisms result in a complex listening environment, constructed in response to the architecture of the performance space.

Bio
Tim Shaw works with sound, light, and communication media to create performances, installations, and site-responsive interventions. His practice spans environmental sound art, digital media, media archaeology, walking, and installation making.
Previously, Tim has developed artistic mechanisms to listen into the sound-worlds of insects, created augmented soundwalks, designed performances for high voltage devices, broadcast radio through trees, listened to network latency through time stretched bells, and extracted musical material from rocks. He frequently presents his work at festivals, in forests, caves, warehouses, up mountains, and in museums and art galleries all over the world.
Collaboration is central to his approach and he has engaged in interdisciplinary partnerships with medieval musicologists, data scientists, anthropologists, geologists, architects and astrophysicists. He has been lucky enough to make artistic work with Chris Watson, Phill Niblock, John Bowers, John Richards (Dirty Electronics), Tetsuya Umeda, Jacek Smolicki and Sébastien Piquemal (among many others).
