Electroprobe Installation #5 

A site-specific installation incorporating an assemblage of electronic objects and a magnetic microphone – the ‘electroprobe’. Affixed to a rotating boom, the electroprobe hovers above the circular arrangement of surrounding objects – picking up their otherwise inaudible internal sounds and rendering them an electronic orchestra. Transmitting the electric murmurs, magnetic hums, and inaudible whistles of our technological surroundings, the work explores the relationship between the living and the inert, and the boundaries between human and machine, invoking the question ‘what can give an object a soul?’
