A string kaleidoscope

This sculptural sound machine transforms the deterministic rotational movement of the capsule into random musical phrases. The coexistence of order and chaos is investigated through engineering and acoustical processes. The strings inside the capsule are weaved in seemingly random patterns, yet carefully arranged so that no one touches each other. This allows the structure to reveal it’s sonority by the the unpredictable paths from falling ping pong balls. The kaleidoscopic reflections in the interior, expand the limits of capsule, multiply the balls and extend the chaotic processes to infinity, debating the actual origin of sound.
