Present Sounds
from the Daily Past
Audiovisual spatial installation | participation Design
​
“Present Sounds from the Daily Past” explores how past actions gain new meaning in the unfolding present. Visitors sit at an office workstation where their everyday gestures, usually unnoticed within routine, are captured by sensors and transformed into sound and video.
These ordinary movements become a live audiovisual performance that oscillates between harmony and overwhelming cacophony. Drawing from musical methods such as repetition, sampling, and tracing, the project examines how these techniques can shape spatial experience.
By replaying and reframing familiar office behaviors, it offers a renewed perspective on daily life, positioned at the meeting point between what has already occurred and what is happening now.​
