At first, I thought we were supposed to come up with just one idea to build our portfolio but then I realized that we have to have 2 ready. As much as I knew what I wanted to do for the first project, I was completely lost when it came to the second project. I was thinking hard about what I create that it’s gonna be in sync with my first idea but creative and different. I wanted to combine meaning, sound, and theatrical presentation. I wanted to create something WOW! I had a lot of ideas, but most of them were too complicated and hard to build. And then, during the night, it struck me. I want to build an enormous model of the human heart around 1 standing loudspeaker to create an imitation of sound coming straight from the heart model. It is still hard and I don’t know how technically it will work out, which I need to discuss with Milo and technicians at LCC. What I am thinking about is building a wire model of the human heart around a standing loudspeaker and then covering it with various materials of different shades of red. Of course, in my head idea looks brilliant but I have never seen or heard of anyone doing this, which is really cool by the way, but then the concept is very much in space and I am not sure how it will come out. Which is exciting and scary as I won’t know until I am actually building it. Maybe in the process, I will realize it is too complicated and I will change the idea but I think for now I will stick to it. Why heart, you could ask? It is the very first sound we animals give out to the world around us. It is sound that we create all the time, our whole life, and as soon it stops our existence stops too. It is an obvious explanation but I think with deep, existential meaning. Talking about sound, I want to use the actual sound of a heart beating, which I am gonna transform.
