klangpfad – trails of sound

a fieldrecording-device was set to record and pause by an electronic algorithm.

1.5 seconds were recorded, followed by about 7 minutes of pause.
hence a soundfile was created that is about 70 minutes long, provided by the length of 22 days for the whole journey.
different rooms, voices, speech, driving noise, traffic, market places, wind etc were acoustically captured in a non predetermined manner. the single samples of the recording got analysed on their frequency shapes, resorted by timbral characteristics and will be played in this new order creating a new track of the journey, the trails of sound.

individual partial tones of the recordings will be overlayed by sine waves, therewith amplified and abstracted – assigning musical connotation to the photographic soundscapes.
performed will be a composition determined by space, time and coincidence, that will also mediate acoustic images of the route vienna – shanghai.
