Konversation
Erwin Stache<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

2006<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An invitation to a resonant conversation with twelve quirky red boxes.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can trees in the forest talk? In Erwin Stache\u2019s installation Konversation<\/em>, they almost do. Twelve red boxes pop up like strange mushrooms. They seem isolated, but looks are deceiving: they listen, react, and converse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three boxes conjure orchestral sounds that change as you move. Four others invite you to join in. Speak, whistle, or laugh! A blinking red light captures your sound, adding it to the conversation. Along the path, five boxes react to passersby: wailing if you stroll, becoming lively if you jog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Konversation<\/em> is never the same twice. Will you join the conversation?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

about the artist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Erwin Stache (DE) studied physics and mathematics in Leipzig whilst also taking music courses. He then went on to work as a freelance musician, instrument maker, inventor and composer. Central to his work is the design of installations and performances for unique locations, where sound, light, movement and space converge in a blend of acoustics, physics, theatre and electronics. He transforms everyday and discarded objects into resonant components of sound installations that are both surreal and instantly recognisable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
