SUMMARY:Click::RAND
DESCRIPTION:Can random digit data be transformed and utilised as a sound installation that provides a\nreferential connection between a book and the electromechanical computer? What happens\nwhen the text of A Million Random Digits with 100\,000 Normal Deviates is ‘vocalised’ by an\nelectro-mechanical object? This book is the primary stimulus for the ideation of a nondeterministic sound installation\, Click::RAND\, the sonic articulation of a large set of true\nrandom numbers produced by RAND Corporation. The work\, an indeterminate sound sculpture\nutilising relays as sound objects\, is an audio-visual reinterpretation and representation of an\nhistorical relationship between a book of random digits and electromechanical computing.\nClick::RAND converts RAND Corporations book of random numbers into an audiovisual\nseries of binary sequences. The work presents these binary sequences as spatialised sound\npatterns to complement the physical presence of the work. Click::RAND weaves together\nquantified moments of binary sequences within a compositional framework based on Henri\nLefebvre’s Rhythmanalysis. This is comprised of a variety of rhythms that coexist and clash\ncategorised as eurhythmia\, polyrhythmia and arrhythmia. Within this framework\, each of\nClick::RAND’s rhythmic forms are titled after Lefebvre’s characterisation of Rhythmanalysis.\nEurhythmia shows the smoother rhythmic but machine-like patterns of interwoven binary\nsequences across multiple rows of relays. Polyrhythmia introduces the element of space into\nthe compositional form\, both physically by the placement of sound blocks and into the work\nas the presence and absence of sound. Arrhythmia’s tempo disturbs the work’s spatio-temoral\nelement through the presence and absence of sound as nonsynchronous binary sequences. As\nsuch\, Click::RAND explores the possibility of “embodying the notation of presence and\nabsence” as a method to expose the patterns of state transitions of binary sequences as a series\nof rhythmic forms.
