Public Address To The Inner Ear

Fanfare for horn loudspeaker, since 2012

Down from the windows, sirens and horn loudspeakers sound in all directions in a dynamic increase from pianissimo to ‘as f * ing loud as possible’.

My desire is to stage such an acoustic flight experience from roofs and windows of all those houses where relevant art happens. The house eradiates acoustically and for a moment ist is newly percieved in its surroundings.

The glissandi of the sirens rub against the standing waves from the horn loudspeakers. The density of the sound gives rise to more virtual sounds in the inner ear of the visitors. For a moment inside and outside become one – the sky is inside the ear.
