Temporary installation developed with Meg Saligman, located just outside the Republican National Convention, in cleveland, Ohio, July 2016. Comprised of ten, 18ft high pylons, including catcher nets, each was fitted with spring loaded ball launchers. Visitors were invited to put their thoughts about "The Good Life" on chips which were then loaded into balls, and launched up into the catcher nets. The balls were then funnelled to the top of the pylon, where they would fall down, inside, forming a pile of thoughts. |

Jazz pianist and composer, Chris Walters, commissioned this device to augment his forrays into new musical territories.
The machine has 8 different voices, consising of 2 metal pipes, a bass piano string, a piece of steel hardware, an aluminum angle, tamborine cymbals, a spring "Boing," and a scratchy noise-maker. Powered by a near-silent gearmotor, the player is able to adjust tempo. The instrument voices are percussed by a variety of interchangeable timing cams. And, which sounds are active is set by stop levers, thereby accomodating a huge variety of possibilities, for both composition purposes, as well as live performances.
