Zure

a sound installation, by

Kato Hideki & Briggan Krauss

.

NOTES:

ZURE ("Gap" in Japanese) is a collaborative installation work by Kato Hideki and Briggan Krauss. For source sounds, the duo used analog synthesizers, laptop computers, recordings of "found" environments and other electronic devices and objects. For visual materials, turntables and other moving objects were used. The intent of the work is to create a composition based on an experience of perceiving individual events or shapes that move, interact and evolve. Sound sources and visual materials will be placed in a non-linear time and space.Ê ZURE is a dynamic installation piece that reflects our "time of everything" as an ever-changing series of works that are never the same from one installation to another. The pieces in this installation will grow and evolve from week to week, exploring the possibilities inherent in the space and system at Diapason Gallery.
