The piece is quite open to completion by the viewer, since it has no overt content, but is simultaneously a kind of mystery-it will not be clear to the viewer... [whether or not] ...s/he is influencing the production of sound. The piece approaches the idea of barrier in terms of the limits of communication...what can be recognized, understood or spoken. |
