The AUDIORIMENT is a space where guests can actively participate in the experience by creating their own noise. To make this space come alive, at least two people are needed: one who speaks and one who listens. This way, people get to know each other and communicate while participating in the audio-experiment.
We proposed the "Alphabet of Forms", which describes how sound passes and distorts in different ways. From this, we selected four forms for realization: "A" for direct sound, "B" for sound scattering, "C" for sound concentration, and "D" for echo.
The art object is located in a field near the main trail. The area is covered with grass, just like the field itself. There are small "glades" next to the elements, where the interaction with the art object takes place. We chose metal as the main material because it has a high density and elasticity, which makes it capable of reflecting sound rich and full, rather than absorbing it.
