Connective Resonance

Connective Resonance connects the body to the built environment, exploring the resonance of London clay. On interaction, a series of clay resonators modulate sound within a space.

​

We took London as a site and used the material that built this city (London clay) to create interactive resonators that allow people can physically and emotionally resonate with different sounds made by architectural material.

​

When viewers place their hands under the vessels, the vessels descend to the level of the viewer's ears. Simultaneously, the lighting within the vessels stops breathing and turns a steady blue colour. The sound that is recorded from architectural material will tune into one frequency and resonate with vessels, which aim to forge a multisensory connection between the viewer and the architectural space.
