Abstract

Timbre of the tones is an interactive sound installation inspired by the Namibian landscape. This handcrafted sound installation will mainly be built with metal, as well containing sand of different colors, found in the host country Namibia. Through the use of a bow and striking sticks, sounds and tones will arise when participants strike the installation. At the same time patterns in the sand will create an optical and acoustic platform.
