Electric Guitar Light Strings
Looks Cool, But What Does It Actually Sound Like? (Core77)
Marcelo Ertorteguy, Takahiro Fukuda and Sara Valente recently collaborated on
"CargoGuitar," an immersive sound installation that is currently on exhibit at
the Kobe Bienniale in Japan.
It's more or less exactly what its name suggests: a series of eight giant
guitar strings stretched into a half-twisting plane within a standard shipping
container.
> CargoGuitar is a large scale electric guitar consisting of 8-meter long
strings that flare through the space in a hyperbolic paraboloid shape. A set
of 8 strings spring from a vertical 'media spine' and terminate at a
horizontal structural bar on the opposite end of the space. The receiving bar
also frames the entrance to the inhabitable instrument. The media spine is
outfitted with 8 tuning pegs to achieve different sound scales, 8 transducers
to capture the mechanical vibrations of the strings and two 1/4" input jack
plugged to two amplifiers. The steel strings glow in the dark enabling users
to play the instrument while discovering the kinetic experience of the light
partition. CargoGuitar is a spatial intervention that explores the threshold
between architecture, art and sound through a live interactive sound
