This piece was mounted for a sound-art group show in Brooklyn at the Williamsburg Art & Historical Society that Brian Connelly organized called “…Just What Do You Think You’re Doing, Dave?” The piece consits of a bare speaker wired to a piece of the physical gallery, in this case a steam radiator. The tape loop plays a 5 second hi volume burst of sound every 6 minutes. Otherwise the piece remains silent.

The effect in the gallery space was of this brief extreme assault of sound for five seconds, which would then disappear. It would surprise viewers in this silent gallery space—coming out of nowhere, making this sonic statement, and then going into a long silence again. The piece had a sort of science fiction aspect for me, a cool dark aura—inhabiting the space but revealing itself only rarely.
