20Hz

20 Hz from Semiconductor on Vimeo.


"20 Hz observes a geo-magnetic storm occurring in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Working with data collected from the CARISMA radio array and interpreted as audio, we hear tweeting and rumbles caused by incoming solar wind, captured at the frequency of 20 Hertz. Generated directly by the sound, tangible and sculptural forms emerge suggestive of scientific visualisations."

In other words: let it load, put on your headphones, turn off the lights, and watch it full-screen.

That started putting me to sleep. So very relaxing...

"I miss rain," Becca said.

Max laughed. "So do I. Sometimes, I tune in static. It sounds the same."
