via this auction"The Garden is a conceptual sound art work and a phenomenal instrument for extending micro sounds into waves or generating odd sounds based on an accoustic source. The Garden is a part of the electrocoustic section of the works of Arius Blaze. Please go here to see more: http://ariusblaze.com/electrocoustic.html
The sound very much reflects the asthetic - an electric garden with waves growing from the sound field they're created from. The sound board and spouts of wire extending from it are picked up with high sensitivity and run through a digital delay with a very warm sound. This delay can be as tight as possible or extend to about one and a half seconds. Every sprig of string has a unique sound and the Garden can be played as a percussion piece or soundscape generator. The feedback can be adjusted to generate long perfect extentions of micro sounds to become waves then captured in long format if desired. There is as much musical potential as there is a potential for strange sounds - bits of waves can be strecthed in real time.
the buyer of a previous garden on ebay had this to say: 'Garden of Eden. You have quite outdone yourself w/ the Garden ! Simple and beautiful-a great idea ! I might say it's the best of yours I have. Wonderful work!'
This piece runs on a single 9v battery, 1/4" output to amp or mixer, custom folktek hardwood box with jointery, and the lamp glows white." Be sure to see these posts for video and more info.
