We are made of water
Audiovisual Performance
The project explores the effect of oscillating frequencies through the specular
reflection of light. Light from a projector reflecting on the water mirror creates
modulation effects seen on a screen. The effect of oscillating frequencies from a
loudspeaker can be experienced as distortion of the projected image. The aim of the
installation is to reflect on the idea of the origin of matter as made of oscillating
particles within an emergent system. Oscillatory energy are the creative force of the
universe, all cultures over the world have use/d sound to attune to, invoke and
transform consciousness, sound is a powerful tool, because it is vibrational in nature
and we are vibrational beings. Sound seen as oscillating energy relates to morphogenic
fields, the natural field of transformation. (Key Words: Morphogenesis, shamanic,
acoustic resonance).

SIMON LONGO
Simon Longo, aka Dithernoise is a London-based sound and audiovisual artist. His work also includes
site-specific installations. Simon’s work is inspired through electronica, dance, techno, digital and
organic aesthetics to create interdisciplinary art with reference to neurosciences, synesthesia and
primarily exploring the perceptual interaction between sound and vision. Simon started with producing
12” vinyls and CDs under several artist names and alias, in early 90's. Simon currently works as an
independent artist and researcher experimenting through the use of time based media.
