Presentation
Sonic Shower: An interactive sound installation exploring sonification of water
SessionMediated Data
DescriptionSonic Shower is an interactive sound installation. The artwork relates to Velasco's research on distinguishing water temperature by its sound and the use of sound waves to cleanse the body as depicted in the science-fiction series Star Trek. In addition, Sonic Shower is a speculative design that imagines a dystopian future where individuals, confronted with severe water scarcity, employ technology to replicate the shower experience for psychological solace. The installation creates a playful experience by converting a classic wall-mounted standing multi-shower system into loudspeakers and MIDI controllers that generate sound using a Max patcher.
