Virtual Sound Installation
The Roedelius Cells
Virtual Audiovisual Environment by Matthew D. Gantt
To make THE ROEDELIUS CELLS accessible during the pandemic, in addition to in-person visits you can experience the installation online in form of a virtual audiovisual environment, created by Matthew D. Gantt. As you explore the virtual space, your position in relation to each circle will determine how you hear the work.
Audio Installation by Tim Story, Piano by Hans-Joachim Roedelius
This collaboration of Gantt and Story emphasizes the challenging of ideas of authorship, appropriation and composition, and blurs distinctions between composer and listener, slyly subverting assumptions.
Gantt releases music with Orange Milk and Oxtail Recordings, and has taught experimental composition at both institutional and DIY spaces, including NYC non-profit/public media studio Harvestworks, CUNY Brooklyn, Bard College, Sarah Lawrence, and a variety of community workshops aimed at creating equitable access to developing technologies. In Fall 2019, he joined the Electronic Arts PhD program at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute/EMPAC, researching spatial sound in virtual reality and strategies for using experimental arts practices as a frame to refigure possibilities for immersive media futures
