Instrument Prototypes (1 and 2)

found wood, guitar, repurposed strings, speakers, amplifiers, single-coil pickup 

​

With an avid interest in using material that has been discarded and neglected, this series is an attempt at reimagining the way we perceive an object's surface appearance i.e. their ‘functionality’ or ‘aesthetic.’ How dramatically could I push an object's physical appearance in contrast to its functional product? This exploration attempts to break down the physical and transcend the metaphysical. An investigation into creating hypnotic and dreamy sonic sound art through up-cycled trash.

Recorded audio processed through looper pedal with additional delay and reverb.
 
Listen to some experimental samples from Prototype 1 along with a visual display (above) of how I played the instrument.

Below is some music I composed using Prototype 1 and 2 as the baseline instrument.
