Title: Noise Flash

Noise flash is a project that I both organize and perform as a part of, with up to 59 other performers.

The project is a large scale silent performance, whereby sound artists are invited to perform using electronic instruments that are self powered and make no acoustic sound (laptops, synthesisers, samplers, etc). Instead of connecting these instruments to speakers in order to make them audible, the audio signal is sent to a short range FM radio transmitter. Performers are spread out across the performance location, with ample space in between performers.

Attending audience members are required to bring an FM radio and headphones, and tune into the broadcasting frequency. The FM transmitters are short range, so not all performers can be heard simultaneously. When audience members stand close to a performer (generally within three to five meters), they can only hear that performer. As they walk away from the performer, the signal will get weaker and start to dissipate and distort, slowly degrading the signal into radio static. As they approach another performer, their signal will slowly get stronger and clearer, emerging from the radio static. When between performers, the audio signal can blend with other performers, cut out, or cause any number of sonic artifacts.

This project has so far been undertaken twice, once at the Royal Melbourne Botanic Gardens, and once as a part of the Liquid Architecture Festival at the Melbourne Museum Forecourt.
