Force Field @ The ICA













I missed this at the ICA last night........ gutted :(
Force Field
21 Nov 2007
An exciting new performance installation from the internationally acclaimed sound artist Ray Lee. By interacting with the electromagnetic 'force field' that surrounds the theremin (the instrument you play without touching), Lee activates and controls a series of kinetic sound machines, creating music and movement from the ether. Somewhere between a Victorian illusion, a performance of electronic music and a scientific demonstration, Force Field is an exploration of invisible forces made tangible, audible and physical. This new work follows on from his highly successful installation performance Siren, which was recently featured at the British Council International Showcase in Edinburgh and at the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz.

Running time 35 mins approx.
