Tenting in a field of energy

Installation, sculpture, shown at several exhibitions and events.

The electromagnetic field is recognized by research as having an effect on human brains and bodies. In this recurring work, we have modified the coils in fluorescent lamp ballasts to emit electromagnetic fields (within reasonable levels) while the lamps are lit. Around them, we place one or more radio receivers that convert this field surrounding the artwork into sound. Being near it during operation is a unique experience. This is an artwork which influences your emotions, senses, and something else.
