Multi-channel audio work encoded for 47 channel The Morning Line Sound System, 30 min
Commissioned by Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary
Dovetailed halving joint is a sonic approximation, a translation into sound of what the artist knew about The Morning Line before having seen it. Working from pictures, technical data and taking inspiration from the name of the sculpture, Auxpan put together the composition, letting the mediated information influence the outcome. Dovetailed halving joint consists of low key drones evolving slowly and layered with pulsed sounds.
