about

Signal to Noise Loops v5: Breathing Space is a generative data-driven audiovisual work for headphone presentation over mobile or smart devices. It is informed by principles from the fields of Cybernetics, Sonification, and Artificial Intelligence.
Music and visuals were created using data from noise level monitors at Ranelagh, Bull Island, and Chancery Park.
The first portion of the piece reflects data from April 2022, after the initial shock of the COVID-19 pandemic had subsided and human activity was returning to pre-pandemic levels in real-world physical spaces across the City.
The second reflects data from April 2020, at the height of the pandemic, as offline activity in real-world locations was tightly constrained and virtual or networked modes of communication became the dominant paradigm for human interaction.

This piece was delivered in the form of an online audiovisual installation for mobile devices at the Earth Rising Eco Festival at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in October 2022.
