about

This musical composition is a part of an sound installation with a decoded morse deconstructed text as it's core. The morse code was recorded in it's spoken representation with the word/sound DAH for dashes, DIT for dots located at the end of a character, and DI for dots located at the beginning or internally within the character.

Thus the original text is converted into a sound poem and the dessicated morse code takes on a personal aspect through the use of a human voice. The sounds that are created during this process are reminiscent to the sounds that someone makes when singing in the shower. The formulaic morse code is presented as the musical score of the sound poem, recorded inside a shower.

This way the lyrical improvisation of the morse code represents a personal moment that is reproduced in the sound installation along the morse coded text of the sound piece printed as a laser cut relief on paper.

Deconstructed Text: Natalia Petropoulou
Morse Code Translation: Georgia Mantalia

The installation was presented in SNAP printmaking exhibition in Athens. Greece, Sep-Oct 2021
