Firmamenta whooshing sound
Michael Chaney, a professor in sound design at SCAD has a show up at Pei Ling Chan Gallery on MLK here in Savannah. It's worth seeing. You go into a long room, where on the left are two prjections- a woman and man cycling backwards into and out of water. Across the room on the right are two horizontal rows of projections, one of a slowly changing, reddish sky, and one below, of choppy dark blue water. The woman cycles much slower than the man, whose motion out of the water (when we can see him) is accompanied by a whooshing sound . So, it is very contemplative and has these baptismal/ religious undertones, but as I am leaving the gallery attendant (bored out of his mind I think) encourages me to read the artists statement. The statement is longwinded and goes deeply in Biblical allusion, where I get lost. Appreciated it more on my own terms.
