Through the image of rain, the project explores the generative patterns of nature and the systemic quality of natural randomness. A two-part mechanism reads the impulses of rain and translates them through sound and light, turning a flow of random rhythms into a living audiovisual system.
The chaotic rhythm of falling drops manifests as an ordered system — a sonic, visual and spatial pattern. Combining a live broadcast of rain with documentary recordings, the project forms a translocal space — a place outside time, where rain never stops and endlessly reproduces itself.
Each recorded raindrop triggers a response in the form of sound and light: a speaker reproduces a signal while LEDs arrange themselves into patterns and connections between impact points. In this way sound forms a spatial environment while light waves visualise its impulses, turning the random movement of drops into a sensory, visible system.
