Delving into technology’s hidden layers, the work uncovers the distinct voices of musical devices—from ancient instruments to modern amplifiers—that shape our sonic experiences. It transforms ordinary listening into an immersive journey, where every machine’s unique resonance invites us to truly hear beyond the silence.
Sound and music is a product of technology. Whether we are enjoying a concert, working in a sound studio or listening with headphones on, technical equipment lays the foundation of our musical experience. In Machine Music. A Media Archaeological Excavation postdoc, composer and PhD Morten Riis tunes into normally undetected layers of music. Musical machines - be it ancient or modern instruments, computers, loudspeakers or amplifiers - are not just silent mediators of sounds. They all have their own unique voices. We simply have to learn to listen to them.
