The first Sewing machine orchestra- 第一個縫紉機樂團

Martin Messier 創建了第一個縫紉機樂團，
在此表現的聲音完全由縫了8 microcontacts和所產生的聲學噪音。

而演奏的過程由微控制器和一台計算機計算，
並且將聲音的節奏結合了動態光影呈現出這個藝術表現
沒想到原來製作美麗服裝的縫紉機
還可以用來演奏前衛有趣的音樂！
時尚與服裝工業真是充滿了無限的可能，
非常有趣的藝術表演跟朋友們一起分享～

enjoy it

原文簡介：

Sewing machine orchestra is the first version of a performance created by martin messier. the basic sounds used in this performance consist entirely of the acoustic noises produced by 8 sewing machines, amplified by means of microcontacts and process by a computer.

the microcontroller system also enable to use the sewing machines to affect certain parameters of the acoustic sound. the wheel, for exemple, can be assigned to the output volume, etc. machine's mechanism can be activated by remote, using microcontrollers and a computer, without the need for any other human intervention.

these old objects has the effect of taking the imagination further, primarily through their evocative power. whether they remind of specific incidents or recall the relationship to such objects, few people remain indifferent when they see them.

this creation was made possible with the support of the canada council for the arts.
