disharmonium (2009). Old fashioned school organ with a motorised pedal that is activated when viewers are approaching. Two keys (one in the bass register, one in the treble) are continuously depressed and bring forward a complex vibration that exists outside the standard appreciation of musical harmony.
”Socrates talks of being one and therefore not being able to risk getting out of harmony with himself. But nothing that is identical with itself, truly and absolutely One, as A is A, can be either in or out of harmony with itself: you always need at least two tones to produce a harmonious sound.”
-Hannah Arendt ”The Life of the Mind”
Listen: disharmonium
