Kathrin Stumreich schreibt zu ihrem Projekt “Fabricmachine“:
Two fabric loops, driven by a motor divide space. At certain points there are light sensors installed to receive signals, which get translated in audio signals.
…
Each different fabric sample is able to deliver a highly individual sound source. The pure analogue translation from a electric signal( generated by the algorithm of the weaving tecnique) gives you an incredible range of different sound qualities, you have to learn to play this instrument, like learning how to play a guitar.The way all pieces are sewed together for a fabric sound track is responsible for beats, breaks and rhythms.
