She is the sculptor who started do sound installation at first. Then she moved this practice to performance setting. She collect different tiny objects (which she claim is because easy to carry around) and most of them are from friends and things she found in everyday life. She did a short performance during the lecture and show us how she usually setup her object in a performance setting. She said the way she set up are depend on the venues and the audience. The acoustic of the room, the material of the floor, the position of the audience. She said she are shy, so she like to set things up behind the audience which sonically very intriguing. All the objects are powered by a small electric motor and every one of them didn’t have mic or anything to amplified their sounds. Different objects have different sonic textures and different physical motions and they were all around the lecture hall. Sonically, the tiny sounds which lead me to trace what and where is it come from as I can’t see all the object in my sit and that lead me to walk around and found them out. The tininess of physical objects and the sounds draw people in and that made the whole room very focus and the motion of the objects also very intriguing visually as well.
