When an earthquake occurs, seismic data is relayed to the system, sound is produced and Google Earth immediately flies to the coordinates of the latest earthquake giving us a visual representation of the newest developments. As multiple earthquakes occur daily, the sculpture builds, enmeshing itself in a complex soundscape of textures and tones – every second, different from the last and never repeating the same stage twice.

My wife (who happens to be a professional photographer) will be taking some good photos of it before the end of the month and I’ll post them back up here.

End result:

It is an amazing space and roomy! The isolation is pretty good and the train (as suspected) has been reduced to a low rumble – nothing that a HPF won’t fix!

I did some acoustics testing using Fuzzmeaser and a calibration mic. The overall frequency balance is very flat, however the decay times are not very good yet at a uniform distribution of about 500ms. There’s some flutter echoing happening so I need to get a few more absorbers.
