Low Frequencies
‘’I pursue the idea and practice of a ‘vibrational experience’ and the therapeutic effects (reduction of stress and anxiety) of low-frequency sound and subwoofers, building a body of work called BODIES AND SUBWOOFERS (B.A.S.).
The installations and concerts have site-specific compositions produced for each location. Analyzing the space specificities, I arrange subwoofers and select sound frequencies with consideration to their transparency (only noticed throughout tactile perception) as well as the ones that create other sounds such as resonances, reverberations.
A proposition for your whole body to be in contact with and shaken by different types of sonic vibrations and their impacts on our bodies and perceptions.’’

Building upon the idea and practice of a ›vibrational experience‹ and the therapeutic effects (reduction of stress and anxiety) of low-frequency sound and subwoofers, I created a body of work entitled »BODIES AND SUBWOOFERS (B.A.S.)« – a series of site-specific installations and concerts with compositions produced for each location.
I analyzes the specifics of the room, arrange subwoofers, and selects low-frequency sound waves, taking into account sonic characteristics such as resonances and reverberations that are created in interaction with the architecture of the room, and their transparency, which can only be perceived in a tactile manner.
This stimulation for the whole body invites us to get in touch with different kinds of vibrations and to be shaken by them. The physical and perceptual effects remain a field of experimentation. The sound massage is felt and heard on the skin and in the body, it gives the feeling of being touched and embraced by sound waves. The invisible touch of sound.
Each B.A.S. has its own subwoofer arrangement that is calculated following the space dimensions and subwoofer type. With these measurements, one can create ''living zones’’ (with higher or variations of acoustic pressure) and ''dead zones’’ (no acoustic pressure). The liveliness of an area is determined by the expression of the acoustic pressure throughout a region, where bodies can or cannot perceive the acoustic signal with their skin/body parts.
