Clockroom.                was a polyrhytmic installation/performance which was an effort to research the relation between sound, focus and different experiences of time..

The instrument/installation consisted of 5 cooking pans hanging from the ceiling, with drips falling into them, creating a bell-like sound. The parameters of the instrument were carefully hand-controlled by the listening performer who kept looking for 'a temporal shift'.

​

The parameters of the 'instrument' where:

the height of drip in relation to the pan, determining volume

the water pressure per dripping tube, determining the time-interval between the drips,

the amount of water in the pan, determining the pitch and eventually replacing the bell sound with splashing water.

the rhythm of the swinging of the pan itself, determining where in the pan the drip would fall, leading to different overtone combinations.
