Don't, Stop

Created by Manufacturing entertainment (julie gendron + emma hendrix)

sound installation by Julie Gendron and Emma Hendrix

don’t, stop (2007) is an interactive and collaborative sound installation comprised of several small, hand-made, white boxes containing simple digital circuits that can record up to 10 seconds of looping sound.

These hand-held boxes remain silent until someone records their voice on to one of them and then plugs it into the main sound system. When several of the boxes are plugged in it creates a voice symphony, beat box, drones or a cacophonous mess. Which one is dependent on the taste of those using it.
