SFFFB

Multichannel Sound Installation

Black Box, RMIT, Melbourne

SFFFB (Spatial Fast Fixed Frequency Filter-Bank) comprises a suite of studies and one creative work designed to examine various concepts which are each realised through the use of custom software designed to distribute an audio spectrum spatially. The conceptual thread through the studies is the relating of audio frequency to spatiality and movement. The software itself was designed in Max/MSP using a network of band-pass filters which direct different frequencies to different points around an eight-channel octagonal array; multiple versions of the program were created based on the requirements of individual studies.

The work was performed at RMIT's Black Box Gallery in 2018
