Daniel Meir created a grid of 16 horn speakers, presenting the viewer with a powerful PA system. The broadcasted sound oscillates between signal, code, and echoes of musical works while revolving around the poem, Hmmm Bomb, written and performed by Eran Hadas. This code is transmitted to an unknown destination, and without a way to fully understand its meaning, it generates urgency and suspense. The signal is cast afar, its source and destination obscure. The changing sound sequence creates a fluctuating dynamic between the soft and meditative and the restless. This project draws on the ideas and study of sonic warfare, and it highlights the rupture between the aspiration to establish direct communication and the resonance of a message sent into the distance.
