Volitional Bus, 2010


Volitional Bus, is a dual channel video and sound installation that uses documentation of two S.I.T.E: Screaming In The Everyday performances: one on a cliff's edge in the Blue Mountains (NSW) during extreme wind weather conditions, and the second on a median strip on Broadway, Sydney.
In each video the vocal performance is inaudible, having been replaced by a 40hz bass tone, while between each loop the screen falls black and solo vocalisations emanate from a speaker situated between the projections.
Videography: David Haines, Brent Grayburn.
