The Wall of Sound is an interactive audiovisual installation created by panGenerator group and commissioned by Katowice Street Art 2019: Urban Sound.
The installation is an experiment in bringing the tools for creating electronic music - sampler / sequencer - into the public space and thus creating an open platform for music expression suited for broad audience. The spatial form corresponds with graffiti art but few more layers are introduced - interaction, light and sound. The main component of the setup - hexagonal node module - allows you to record and play back the sound. Thanks to the numerous links between the nodes virtually endless variations of the sequences consisting of the peoples voices are possible. The open dialogue with the audience brings the installation to life, saturates it with meaning and allows it to evolve day by day constantly bringing new voices and new sequences into the mix.
