Short Story

“Echoes of Sound” is a series of sound art installations exploring the materiality of sound through interactions with different materials. Each piece uses sound vibrations to transform sand, liquid, metal, and glass, creating stunning visual and tactile effects. These works challenge traditional concepts of sound art, transcending auditory limits and offering a multi-dimensional sensory experience. Supporting this project means contributing to the development of sound art and the innovation of multi-dimensional artistic expression.

Story

In this noisy and rhythmic modern world, sound is often perceived as a mere background presence. We are accustomed to receiving it through our ears, overlooking its true depth and power. Sound is not only a channel through which we perceive the world, but also a profound medium for artistic creation that can evoke emotional resonance and inspire creativity. “Echoes of Sound” is a series of sound art installations that explore the materiality of sound and the boundaries of artistic expression, attempting to transcend the limits of auditory perception and create a multi-dimensional sensory experience.

As an intangible entity, sound constantly influences our emotions, behavior, and thoughts. It is an integral part of music, language, and the natural world, capable of sparking our imagination and emotional connections. However, when we encounter sound, we often perceive it only from an auditory perspective, neglecting its other dimensions. “Echoes of Sound” aims to address this gap by integrating sound with matter, exploring its materiality and morphology, and transforming sound from a mere auditory experience into a fusion of visual, tactile, and spatial perceptions.

The creative concept behind this project is to combine modern technology with traditional craftsmanship to demonstrate how sound resonates and interacts with different materials, generating entirely new forms of art. We will employ vibration devices, sensors, sound systems, and other technologies to convert sound waves and vibrations into material forms, causing materials such as sand, liquid, metal, and glass to deform and move, creating a visually stunning effect. For instance, in one piece, sound vibrations may cause metal wires to ripple, and as the sound waves change, their shapes will transform accordingly, allowing the audience to witness the materialization of sound. In another piece, the movement of liquid and sand will be visually altered by varying frequencies of sound, offering an immersive sensory experience for the audience.

Each installation will be triggered by sound waves, producing different light, shadow, and shape effects. Audiences will not only “hear” the sound, but also “see” its form and feel its texture. These works are not simply artistic presentations of sound; they are in-depth explorations of sound as a material entity, challenging the conventional understanding of sound and pushing the boundaries of how we perceive it. We hope that audiences, while experiencing the emotional resonance and impact of sound, will also interact with the pieces and appreciate the profound connection between sound and matter.

“Echoes of Sound” is not just an art project, but an exploration at the intersection of sound, material, and sensory experience. It takes the artistic presentation of sound to new heights, allowing people to reconsider the power and allure of sound from a fresh perspective. Through this exhibition, we aim to showcase how sound, as an intangible art medium, can break the traditional boundaries of art by interacting with material forms, creating a multi-dimensional sensory experience.

The ultimate goal of the project is to present these works in exhibitions, public art spaces, museums, and galleries, enabling a broader audience to engage with the allure of sound art. We hope to inspire the public’s interest in sound art and multi-dimensional artistic expression while also providing momentum for the development of sound art as an emerging field. Through this project, we also aim to open up new creative possibilities for artists exploring sound as a medium.

By supporting “Echoes of Sound,” you are not only helping bring this art project to life, but also contributing to the innovation and growth of sound art. Your support will help us present these works to a wider audience, allowing more people to touch, feel, and experience the allure of sound, and explore the interaction and resonance between sound, material, and space.

Risk Warning

Please note, participating in crowdfunding projects involves certain risks…

Investing in projects on a global creative crowdfunding platform, whether supporting creative projects or participating in crowdfunding activities, involves certain risks. To make more informed investment decisions, we recommend that you carefully read the following risk warnings before participating in any crowdfunding project:

1.Project Risks Crowdfunding projects are typically in the early stages and carry a high level of uncertainty. Projects may experience delays, failure to meet targets, or even complete failure due to factors such as technical challenges, insufficient market demand, or weak team execution. Please make sure to thoroughly understand each project's background and objectives before making a rational investment decision.

2.Funding Security Risk During the project support phase, the funds you donate or invest are not directly used to purchase products or services, but rather to support the project in achieving its goals. Therefore, the use of project funds and the fulfillment of commitments are not related to the platform, and we cannot take responsibility for the project's financial operations or fund security. We recommend that you thoroughly understand the credibility and history of the project before participating.

3. Product Delivery Risk The core of crowdfunding projects is usually the commitment to deliver products or services. Due to various factors such as production, logistics, and technology, the delivery timeline of promised products may change or be delayed. When supporting a project, please maintain realistic expectations and understand that the project may be affected by uncontrollable factors.

4. Market and Industry Risk Some creative projects may face challenges from external factors such as insufficient market demand, intense competition, and changes in industry policies. These factors may lead to the project failing to be completed smoothly or unable to achieve profitability. Therefore, market uncertainty and industry changes are risks that cannot be overlooked.

5. Legal and Compliance Risk Crowdfunding projects may involve legal regulations from different countries and regions. Project initiators may face legal disputes if they fail to comply with relevant laws. We recommend that you check the legal compliance of the project in its location before supporting it to avoid risks from non-compliant projects.

6. Investment Return Uncertainty Crowdfunding support is not the same as investing in the stock market or venture capital, and the projects you support are not set up with the goal of providing financial returns. Please be fully aware that participating in crowdfunding activities may not yield the expected returns and may even involve the risk of investment loss.

7. Limitation of Liability This platform serves as a crowdfunding service platform, providing technical support and platform services. However, we do not take responsibility for the project's operational status, progress, or product quality. We encourage investors to make independent and rational decisions and take responsibility for their investments.

Friendly Reminder

Rational Investment: Crowdfunding is a high-risk investment method, and funds should be invested based on thorough understanding and consideration. Do not invest more than you can afford to lose.

Cautious Evaluation: Before participating in any crowdfunding activity, it is recommended that you thoroughly understand the project's background information, goals, and team capabilities, and actively communicate with the project team to ensure a full understanding of the risks.

Regulatory Authorities: This platform collaborates with multiple regulatory bodies globally to provide a transparent and fair crowdfunding environment. However, we still recommend that you pay attention to the compliance of both the platform and the project team to ensure the legality of your investment.
