A Million Keys

Lina Selander- 14th of February to 24th of June, 2003 (2003)

For 14th of February to 24th of June, 2003 artist Lina Selander photographed the night sky of Stockholm over the course of 5 months. She then used this collection of photos as a basis for a digital sound composition which she transmitted under the ground through pipes in Djurgarden park in Stockholm. The pipes jut out of the ground in three places, making the sound audible. I like the idea of taking a natural occurence- the night sky- and converting it into a score for a man-made artifact- digital sound. Then integrating this work back into nature, as if the transference never occured.
