Cell is an installation that consists of a steel cylinder which is freely accessible and of a web of hidden wireless sensors. On several spots these sensors measure fine vibrations that occur when objects or parts of the building are touched. The steel cocoon receives those vibrations and amplifies the low frequencies across its inner surfaces. It acts as a focus point of contact events between bodies and architecture. As soon as vibrations resonate…

Language is a collection of either sonic or visual objects that are structurally related to one another and thus create a system that has significance for the user of that system. For the uninitiated this code produces no semantics and only the aesthetic form and sometimes the exotic appeal of the language remain. LANGUAGE I consists of a compilation of individual speaker cones that are put under tension. There is no audio signal, but the electrical…

A 13 minute video by Rui Ribeiro documenting a presentation of the Staalhemel installation in the central Horta hall of Bozar, Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels. This video focuses on the experience of the visitor. Different facial expressions reveal inner reflections of visitors that are in interaction with the machine.

This interactive installation confronts the viewer with an acoustic representation of the electrical brain activities that govern his being at that very moment. All our mental and physiological processes are controlled by myriads of transitory circuits in an invisible, obscure place in the crown of our head. That intimate topography is mirrored in this sky of steel as hammers hit the plates in shifting rhythms and combinations, transforming parts…

In the interactive installation 'timecodematter' the visitor enters an arena that is bordered with vibrating sheets of massive steel. The steel objects are pulsating with low frequencies and they react to the approach of persons. The acoustic energy in this installation is both penetrating and intangible: the resonant properties of twelve different steel sheets respond to the low frequencies and produce a conjuring effect.

Christoph De Boeck
Christoph De Boeck co-founded the collaborative structure 'deepblue' in 2002 together with Heine Avdal and Yukiko Shinozaki. From within this production structure he engaged in many productions as a sound artist, sound designer, and electronic musician.
De Boeck aims at rendering sound tactile through spatialisation and with alternative choices of sound transmission, like transducers to incite steel resonance. For concerts
