Plexiglass, MDF, beer bottles, 3d printed hardware, etched garolite sheet, sand, 1/4in input jacks, wire, instrument cables, 4 x white noise circuits,, solder, copper tape

**This piece produces sound. There are four white noise circuits contained on a central circuit board in the middle of the piece. Each circuit is connected to a 1/4in output jack on one of four sides of the piece. These circuits can be switched on or off independently by panel mounted toggle switches. This work does not contain built in speakers but you can connect instrument cables to each of the four sides of the plexiglass case and run them to independent speakers in four corners of a room. This allows for the creation of a surround sound environment, enveloping viewers in a persistent and overwhelming white noise.

**This piece produces sound. It utilizes a stereo amplifier and a six oscillator drone circuit. Two of the six oscillators are affected by the amount of available light in a space. The pitch can be further manipulated by viewers moving their hands in front of the embedded nitrile rubber gloves. The remaining four oscillators frequencies are fixed and tuned to create a harmonious and consistent tone. This piece can exist with or without the use of the built in sound components. It has a detachable power source, power switch and volume control.

** This piece produces and processes sound. It contains a built-in amplifier, speakers and audio distortion circuit. A rubber dipped silk palm leaf protrudes from the top of the piece. The tip of one of its leaves is covered in copper and is wired to the amplifier and distortion circuit. Touching this copper tip creates a ground loop noise that is processed through the piece. Additional signals can be sent to this piece to be merged/split and processed through the amp and speakers.

**This piece produces sound by amplifying air that is produced by an electric air pump. The pump is controlled by a momentary power switch. When the switch is compressed the air pump is activated, pushing air through a series of polyethylene tubes and beer bottles. The air eventually reaches a concrete casting of my nose that has a small condenser mic mounted behind it. This condenser mic picks up the sound of the passing air and is connected to an amplifier with volume control. The audible result is similar to white noise or someone breathing on a microphone.

** This piece produces sound. It contains a custom oscillator circuit that is activated by touching a small recycled aluminum casting atop a stack of beer bottles. The signal is sent to the built-in amplifier and speakers. This piece can also split and distribute audio signals and incorporates a bundle of rubber dipped, silk, narcissus flowers. The bundle of flowers contain a contact mic that is activated by manipulating the flowers. This piece can be connected to other sculptures in this series.

Beer bottles, copper tape, solder, MDF, steel rod, spray paint, silicone, PLA plastic, plexiglass, amplifier, speaker, photocell oscillator circuit, 1/4 input jack, electronics components.

**This piece produces and processes sound. Stacked beer bottles are assembled into a column and joined by copper and solder tape, creating traces similar to those present in a circuit board. A speaker sits on top of the column and is connected to an amplifier that is sending a signal from an oscillator circuit. This oscillator is set to a very low frequency, creating a slow cycling waveform that produces clicks. The frequency of the oscillator is controlled by a light dependent resistor. As viewers move around the piece, they affect the available light to the sensor. The clicking sound that is played through the speakers speeds up or slows down based on this interaction between the viewer, light source and proximity to the piece. Additionally, the base of the piece incorporates a 1/4in input that can accept an audio signal.

** This piece produces and processes sound. Audio cables can be plugged into the floor sculpture and merged/split and sent to other pieces in the series. The wall component is part of this work. It contains an audio delay circuit that can process regular instruments or any other audio signal that is inserted. It's possible to create feedback by routing audio in and out of the delay and through the floor piece. The small castings of succulents and my nose are made from recycled aluminum beer cans and can be touched to create a ground loop hum.

**This piece produces and processes sound. It contains a handmade bit reduction/distortion circuit. A bundle of rubber dipped narcissus flowers hangs from the front of the piece. These flowers are connected to 1/4in guitar cables that are plugged into the piece. The bundle of flowers contains a contact mic. When the flowers are touched it sends a signal through the bit reduction/distortion circuit. Any instrument or sound producing sculpture can be run through this piece, effecting the audible output.

Plywood, oak, plexiglass, cast aluminum, spray paint, spring reverb tank, guitar cables, 1/4in input jacks, contact mics, audio amplifier circuits, electronic components, velcro cable ties, 3D printed hardware

**This piece produces and processes sound. It incorporates a series of contact mics that are connected to the 1/4in input jacks on the front panel. Any instrument or audio device can be plugged in and sent through a built-in spring reverb tank, creating a deep, cavernous sound. There are aluminum castings of fingers and succulents that are fitted onto 1/4 jacks. These can be inserted and activate the contact mics while also creating a ground noise loop when touched. This piece is battery powered and needs to be connected to other sculptures in the series that contain speakers. The aluminum castings are of my fingers and are made from recycled beer cans consumed during the making of the work.
