EMMA HART

Emma Hart and Benedict Drew

Untitled Five

first performed 2008

For the Nought to Sixty event at the ICA, we assembled a variety of projectors and equipment and got them to play instruments whilst projecting an image.

 

We had a slide projector playing wind chimes, a beater was attached to it's carousel and the chimes were struck as it travelled around. 16mm projectors played the cymbals, and a snare drum - a piece of film struck a drum as it spun on the projector. DVD players played an organ, the dvd drawer would strike the keys as they opened and closed. A moving head disco light played the electric guitar. A 16mm projector pulled a film which was laid on it's side on a record deck and played as a record. A slide projector's fan blew and played a harmonica.

 

In the centre of this Emma Hart and Benedict Drew played the high hat and kick drum, both had small video cameras attached to them. The camera was inside the high hat and on the pedal of the kick drum. These cameras captured and projected video of the audience.
