Re-Design, Production & Installation of 4+2 Soundsystem: Concrete Speakers for Vivian Caccuri exhibition at Savvy Contemporary Berlin

 
 
 
 

Vivian Caccuri’s installation reflects on a specific type of mosquitos found in the Amazonas region which face extinction due to deforestation. The work reflects on sounds that are steadily escaping our soundscapes, due to an increased man made source of noise. Instead of associating noise with the unwanted – such as the sound of a mosquito, Caccuri seeks inspiration in El-Dabh’s philosophy that noise is rather a space of accepting all sounds to cohabit spaces. Lorenzo Sandoval’s sonic travelogue dives into archives of El-Dabh, bringing its contents into relation with materials and concepts of color, waves, mathematics, rhythm and space, to explore the notion of divergent genealogies from the logic of Lefebvre’s rhythmanalysis. Lastly, through Emeka Ogboh’s installation, Halim El-Dabh’s sonic and musical practice finds a new visuality in the moving images when sonic waves mesh into each other while both of them are inseparable sensory experiences.
