f+e=n
Is an audio-visual performance based in the audiovisual installation “E”, where we create an open hardware by the use of the basic 3rd generation hardware, capable of process into sound the energy contained in fruits and vegetables, discarded by supermarkets, through an electrochemical reaction.
Shows the electrochemical reaction, which is generated by inserting two different metallic objects, copper and zinc, in each of the fruit that is in the installation. These fruits, connected in series, produce a small amount of electricity that is transformed through various integrated circuits to sound frequency, which are displayed on TVs located in the room.
By synthesis of analog and digital video, hardware (video synthesizer) and free software (PureData) previously designed and built for live audiovisual installation Fruit+emotion=noise, artists create an audiovisual composition based on the law of conservation of energy, the first law of thermodynamics, which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only can be transformed.
F+E=N is a collaborative project between Martinka Bobrikova & Oscar de Carmen and Victor Mazon.
