PULSATE is a sound installation that reflects on events that have taken place in recent times and their ensuing impact on the individual and society. Built on the concepts of reflection, reverberation and resounding, the work responds to and takes the pulse of its immediate surroundings. The installation is composed of waves of acrylic mirrored panels and reflective gold paper in varying sizes. Wedged between them are tweeters, a type of loudspeaker which produces high audio frequencies. Composed to play at different timings, various sound frequencies from the tweeters send vibrations to the gold paper, resulting in reverberations that alter the papers’ surfaces. Imprinted on the reflective materials are images of the ever-evolving environment around the Concourse, reminding us of our existence, and life’s occurrences which shape our perceptions and character. PULSATE is a poignant rumination on how we could emerge stronger from the sum of our collective experiences.
