Crankshaft

I created an industrial symphony kinda soundscape for the art exhibition opening of my friends Juha Fiilin and Elina Orpana. See the flyer to the right.

This is what lecool barcelona had to say:

Finnish expatriate artists and designers Elina Orpana http://elinaO.com and partner Juha Fiilin http://fiilin.com launch their first exhibit dedicated to Heinola, a lovely little Finnish town in the middle of nowhere, and Helsinki. In a 3 part expo: 1- Lago Melodías- with avant garde artist and Heinola native Mikko Karvonen, we see how lakeside ripples and cross-sectioned tree trunk lines are converted to sound in an otherwise soundless environment 2-“Amistad”- reflects on the Finnish national pastime of love and respect for nature and 3- “Hell Sin K”- an exposé on the darker side of Finnish nightlife in the capital, and it isn’t very pretty what a town without pity can do. It’s not all tree-hugging apparently. Yet another “le cool experience” to invite everybody you know. Be there or be square.

These are the photos used to generate the sounds:

And these are the resulting soundscapes:
