japanese media artist yuri suzuki has developed ‘looks like music’, an audiovisual installation for MUDAM, based on his previous interactive piece entitled ‘color chaser’. the intervention consists of a series of odd-shaped miniature robots designed by dentaku which detect and follow a designated circuit – a black line traced in marker pen – scattered among color reference points that the mobile objects translate into sound. the exhibition invites the public to contribute to create an orchestra by extending the circuit drawn on paper with colored markers. within the installation, five different color chasers translate the drawings into a symphony of music composed by mark mckeague; each shape produces unique sound content such as drum samples and computer noise percussion to create playful audible chaos.
