action art for vexed body and biophysical media (Xth Sense)<br><br>"During this twenty minutes action I pull two concrete blocks in a
circle. My motion is oppressively constant. I have to force myself into
accepting the pain until the action is ended. The increasing strain of
my corporeal tissues produces continuous bioacoustic signals. The sound
of the blood flow, muscle contraction bursts, and bone crackling are
amplified, accumulated, distorted, and played back through 4 loudspeakers and 4 subwoofers using
the biophysical instrument Xth Sense (Pd-based), developed by the author... <br><br>When
the performer’s muscle vibration becomes tangible sound breaching
into the outer world, it invades the audience members’ bodies through
their ears, skin, and muscle sensory receptors. The sound makes their
muscles resonate, establishing a nexus between player and audience. The
listeners’ bodies, the player’s body, and the performance space resonate
synchronously"<br><br>VIDEO: <a href="http://marcodonnarumma.com/works/hypo-chrysos/" target="_blank">http://marcodonnarumma.com/works/hypo-chrysos/</a><br>
