The construction process has 3 parts. Making the audio component using specific sounds to render specific vibrational images in oscillation. Creating a hand constructed audio system that visualises vibration utilising a laser, replicating an oscillator. Thirdly, importing the recorded footage of the filmed vibration into a visual synthesiser and changing parameters and adding visual affects to the footage to create glitch affects. The work connects to a broad audience as it is dynamic and engaging. The audio is energetic and captures attention, and the visuals match the audio creating an immersive, almost interactive piece. The application of a CRT monitor hinges on notions of nostalgia, yet the visual presented is almost sci-fi and other worldly, creating a polarising dynamic, appealing to a sense of familiarity. The work conveys notions of collective consciousness and how connection with other people through unquantifiable aspects can be seen as a glitch in society.
