‘FIELD’ is the new project from the prestigious Canadian artist Martin Messier whose work derives from one basic idea: the creation of sound from electromagnetic fields imperceptible to the naked eye and human ear.
Messier uses transducer microphones to capture these electrical signals, along with two large panels located on stage that allow him to connect any transmitter outputs to inputs, thereby shaping the sounds. The artists interacts through the continuous plugging and unplugging of connections to produce a composition of sound and light in real time, allowing us to listen to and observe powerful energetic material that would otherwise be inaudible and invisible. The end result is an amazing, incredibly physical show, mixing minimal sounds, electric shocks, shadow manipulation and energy converted into noise.
