Dave Allen [UK]
Wall-text/ mural, 2001/2005
The wall-text realised by Dave Allen for club transmediale.05 "Mirrored at Mean Mid-Point Comp" attempts what is practically impossible to achieve: By creating an anti-composition he will try to "silence" the music. The text describes how soundwaves should be inverted in their highs and lows with the goal of completely erasing all sound. This is based on the idea that if you play a waveform and its inversion simultaneously silence is obtained.
