hyd~ translates the circulation of water into a choreographed sculpture of sound and motion.

An industrial robotic arm, commonly employed in medical and laboratory automation, guides a parametric loudspeaker that projects self recorded soundscapes of the river Rhine captured with a hydrophone, a microphone used for recording underwater environments. Covered by a black shimmering textile, the focused beam of sound and the articulated gestures of the arm form a field in which direction, reflection and movement intertwine.

​

By transposing a tool of precision and control into an environment of fluid uncertainty, hyd~ explores the shifting boundary between care and extraction. The work evokes the image of a fountain as both technological construct and vanishing resource, turning the prospect of future scarcity into an acoustic and spatial experience.
