Xiaoying Meng – Looking Outwards 09

I am looking at Lan Wei’s Looking Outwards 4 Sound Art. It is about FUSE*FACTORY’s installation Multiverse. I do agree with Lan Wei that the visual and sound effects working together, making the piece very powerful. I think other than making people “think about life and the universe using their own imagination”, the piece also creates a contrast between the massive universe and the tiny existence that we are. I would argue that the piece almost requires the viewer to be alone with no one else present.  FUSE*FACTORY mentioned that the sound is also generated by a digital system. Both the sound and visuals are real-time, nonrepeating, just like the universe. One can argue that the randomness in this piece perfectly represents the multiverse. The sound effect in this piece makes it more engaging and powerful.
