Mediations (1986)

I would like the meaning of the work to be constantly in your mind when watching the video, the video starts of with the image of a speaker and narrator said what

the object and explain what the function of the speaker is, even thought so simple it made me understand that a speaker is an electoral voice that can be used to

convey a message that is possible loader then

any single human voice. The output,

the voice of electronic devices.

The voice that comes from the speaker is made into a visual image when sand is placed on the speaker, the vibration that enter are ears in order for us to hear is made visual when the sand is placed on the speaker. With every tremble of the speaker that comes from the voice of speaker there seems to be a conflict between the sound and the vibration where the view witness the sand being toss up in the air.

Slowly the sand is compromising the sound and the clarity that once heard is disturbed the conflict of the two can be heard in an annoying manner, also the

visual conflict is no more because the sand has

total emerged the speaker.
