SYNTONYMS – BY ÁBRIS GRYLLUS
COLLEGIUM HUNGARICUM WIEN – UNGARISCHES KULTURINSTITUT
27.9.–6.10.2013
The inflatable, spacious tent in the foyer of the stilwerk Wien isolates people from the surroundings and thus evokes an even richer experience of the installation. The installation “Syntonyms” takes images from six European cities located at famous rivers – among them Vienna – as visual material to be translated into an auditory and interactive game. The silhouettes of buildings and their images mirrored in the water are transformed into parameters. These serve as basis for soundscapes presented to the audience in an igloo-like tent, where visitors can choose between the various cities. Curator: Rita Mária Halasi
