Black Boxes

metal boxes and light sensitive sound components

​​

This series of black boxes that house short audio clips meant to evoke specific memories from my childhood. When opened these black boxes release short sound tracks. The sound were programed onto a light sensor audio modules. When the box is open and exposed to light the module would play the soundtrack. In this piece I was interested in how the combination of objects and sounds have the power to recall memories and form personal narratives.
