about

Every Vessel records and dramatises the history of its manufacture is a multimedia project by the trio Flamingo, involving music and gesture, manifested in 3D-printed sculpture. The process encompasses the rendering of audible and visual material in both time and physical space, to create an immersive experience that challenges established notions about the work of art as well as its process of manufacture.

Throughout the month of May, 2017, Flamingo performed three concerts a day, six days a week at the contemporary art gallery Kunsthal Nord in Aalborg, Denmark. A custom-designed algorithm analysed the audio and motion data of the performers, using machine-listening and machine-learning technologies to recognise patterns and structures in the performance. The data from each performance was then translated into a print file that, when fed to a 3D-printer, resulted in the creation of a sculpture. In total, 72 unique sculptures were created and exhibited.

This is the audio file sculpture 2017052502, that is, the sculpture that was generated by the second concert on the 25th of May 2017.

Flamingo explores sound, texture and dynamics. Sometimes verging on the threshold of hearing and at other times engaging in dense layers and waves of sound, the music of Flamingo creates a poetic space in which pure sound phenomena step forth on the eternal backdrop of silence. ... more
