"A Bunch of Mono Speakers"

A project based on our experience at ZKM using mono speakers with built-in SD card playback:

Assignment

Develop a pre-rendered, 4 channel piece for mini loudspeakers of 3-5 minutes in duration.

The piece should include elements of dramaturgy and performance. Think placement, presentation, "prepared speaker" approaches, etc. This is not panning between sources -> each source will be a "voice" so see what they can tell us.

Do not rely on tight synchronization as playback timing may not be exact.

Hardware: Mifa A1 mono loudspeakers with built-in SD card player (borrowed from ZKM)
