The *CHEM:SYS:REAKTOR*project isbased on the analysis of the acoustics 
of space as a signpost for designing sound while taking into account the 
"site-specific" conditions. The author explores perception through 
physical properties of electronic sound in relation to the environment 
in which it is created, by means of which he wishes to inform the 
visitor about the aesthetics of the so-called "space sound". The sound 
sculpture, like a frequency generator, is comprised of modules -- 
temporary sound systems. Through experimental electro-chemical levers, 
these systems form a hybrid electro-acoustic whole as a rhizomatic sound 
system, which maps the architecture of sound in space. Electric impulses 
travel through a series of fluid substances and combine into sound 
stimuli. The sculpture emits a dynamic frequency selection of waves, 
which change with regard to the oscillation of value between electricity 
and chemical processes of the present reagents, through which the system 
is becoming a living organism. In so doing, the author makes possible 
random options for ever new configurations of the event, established on 
the basis of electric impulses and sound perception in space.

In a rhizomatic system, which operates without the author and lives its 
own life, the synthesis of sound in space becomes a political subject, 
which moves away from hierarchical structures of sound compositions. 
When sound is divorced from the origin and travels through space, the 
viewer, who is exposed to the trajectory of sounds, gains information 
about the interconnectedness of sound contents because, through 
movement, the viewer simultaneously perceives sounds that are aimed in 
different directions. The visitor becomes part of the architecture, an 
interspace and a barrier, within which he finds himself in the position 
of an acoustic element in the journey of sound through space.
