CONNECTIONS: BLUE AND RED

Troy Ramos
Sound and Light Installation


These works are a harmony of sound and light entities. The spaces themselves are a big part of the work and help to shape how visitors experience it. The process for creating these works began with the spaces. Both the sound and light elements were created and curated in a way which allowed the results to feel as though they emanated from the structure of the space itself.

This sounds for this work are based off of sounds which existed in the rooms already. These recordings were then transformed into the works you hear in both rooms. Within each room, Blueand Red, you hear the sounds from a different visual perspective.
