On November 13th and 14th 2014, the artists undertook an expedition through the foothills of Victoria’s Mount Feathertop with a series of custom made instruments. Materials found in the natural environment (wood, rocks, soil, leaves, wind) were utilised as natural electrical inputs for the instruments. In this way, the instruments are ‘played’ by the mountain itself.
Developed for Instrument Builders Project 3 in 2014, presented by the National Gallery of Victoria.
