Artist Statement:

NOISE SQUARE is an audiovisual installation in which evolutionary patterns of cellular automata are translated into the physical realm through a set of four mechatronic sound sculptures. The sound sculptures are comprised of a small DC motor in a clear box with a pivoting door that is controlled by an actuator. Micro-controller programming is used to change the speed of the motors and to open and shut the instruments’ doors. As the cellular automata evolve through new generations, the installation produces sound and light.
