About staalplaat soundsystem

Since its inception in 2000, Staalplaat Soundsystem has created a multitude of mechanical sound installations using all manner of consumer electronics. Previous highlights of Staalplaat Soundsystem performances include »Floating Islands« , a large sound/light installation in the Spree, a floating orchestra composed of fifty vacuum cleaners, plastic bottles and lights. The interactive element of Staalplaat Soundsystems work is shown in the installation »Sale Away« a democratic piece that explored the influence of the public on the work; by simply using their mobile phones people were able to play a complex mechanical orchestra. The most resend project »Architectone« is to create sound art with public space. Several compositions were produced for building’s, a park and a trainstation in collaborations with architects and other Artist active and experienced in this veiled. The same principle translated to our body, the most private space, results in the most intimate confrontation between public and our work is »The Ultrasound of Therapy« . The installation gives visitors the chance to experience a unique, personal sensory experience, by mimicing a clinical environment.
