EARPHONES – contemplation tool nr. 1

We are making more and more sets of EARphones at the moment to develop performances to listen to yourself closely.

A purely kinetically organized sound source, which operates almost freely within a given limit, is placed with gentle pressure on the auricles, like headphones. 

Small, massive balls roll inside a larger, thin hollow sphere, rub over the round surface and generate the simplest sound waves in the frequency range of >1 kHz. They penetrate the ear’s auditory canal through the air and also as body resonance via the ear cartilage into the bone structure – causing the entire body to vibrate very finely and the brain to vibrate quite loudly. Humans’ gravitational sensors, their top-down orientation, their very own center of the universe are also located in the ear. EARphones trigger that center.

The rolling spheres experience strong movement impulses, resulting from two forces: the movements of the head and the gravitational force of the earth’s mass (this top-down orientation).
