Sound Wave

This is an audio-visualization installation. The inspire of it is from Sol Lewitt’s wall drawing #95 where he used limited lines to create endless forms of art. It makes me believe that the constrained rules in an artwork could be a great starting point of creating endless and born variations. I then make this installation, the constraint is each fixed start and end point of each links and the number of the lines (80). The only variable would be the action of line moving pace and shapes. Those lines will wave based on the sound they “listened.” In my example, I made a gentle audio so the line would move like a flowing creek, that shape of moving enhance the topic of the song and my idea as it states the music in a special way.
