logic licht

logic licht explores the theme of repetitive logic systems. a complex rhythm loop divided among nine channels is transmitted onto nine programmed flash lights. the filaments of the flash lights emit light and audible signals, creating a visual as well as an acoustic pattern. the origin of the morse code-like light impulses is decoded as soon as the light intervals are perceived as pure acoustic sound.
