Two plaster objects, headphone elements, modified servo motors, computer, maxmsp, arduino, audio interface
A&B is about the communication between two acoustic systems. A microphone, a loudspeaker and a servo motor are built into each of the two plaster objects. The two objects are connected by a maxmsp patch, which allows to listen to and analyze the feedback that arises when the arm lowers the position of the microphone in the direction of the loudspeaker. The signal from object A obtained from the feedback controls the arm of object B and vice versa. The resulting behavior of the system appears like a dialogue between the two.
