Repressound (fragment from 'L'eclisse')

One of the sequences from Michelangelo Antonioni's 'L'eclisse' on which the interactive sound installation 'Repressound' is based.

Initially, in the sound installation these images are not visible. Only when the visitors of 'Repressound' generate some kind of sound (crying, speaking in a very loud voice, clapping...) the images appear, projected on the water that fills an oxidated oil drum.

If the sounds disappear (when the audience remains silent), the images fade to black again. So the visitors of the installation have to keep producing sound if they want to follow the actions presented in this sequence. The members of the audience are the only sources of sound in this sound installation.

'Repressound: L'eclisse' is a work by DissoNoiSex, an art group devoted to the aesthetical exploration of the borders between sex and sound, eroticism and music, sensuality and rock, porn and electroacoustics...

This interactive audiovisual installation was premiered at the PING! 4 festival for experimental art, in Andratx (Mallorca, Spain), October 2007.
