Verena Bachl, Karsten Schuhl | Synphon

There are many things beyond the edge of our perception, things like electromagnetic fields, ultrasonics or UV light. What would happen if we perceived the world in a totally different way, if there is an auditive world hiding behind its visual mask? Is there something like the tone of all things going unheard, a secret natural frequency? „Synphon“ converts visual data of depth measurement by use of infrared light into auditive data, representing a missing link between the visual and auditive perception. Light is turning into sound – a union of vision and audition is created by a synesthetic object.
