1   The Cocktail Monkey Effect

My friends Yoni Niv, Clara Latham and I are building a sound installation, provisionally titled The Cocktail Monkey Effect. The work is very much in progress, but we have some documentation and demonstrations:

• A short paper describing the installation's concept, equipment, and rationale
• A diagram of the sound circuit
• Two videos, demonstrating the sound circuit and simulating the visual concept:
  • Smooth contours
  • Jagged contours

2   Satco Sound System

Meanwhile, I've been working on a project of my own: the Satco Sound System (gooseneck desk lamps with built-in speakers). In March 2010, I set up a four-lamp installation in NYU's music department: see the video here, on Vimeo.
