Garden of Russolo
Sound installation commissioned by Victoria and Albert Museum and ICN Gallery
13/09/2013 – 22/09/2013 at Victoria and Albert Museum
‘Garden of Russolo’ is an interactive sound installation by Yuri Suzuki, which allows visitors to have
a sonic experience using their own voice. the auditory installation, shown at the V&A during the 2013
london design festival, is based on suzuki’s previous series of sound-activated work ‘white noise
machines’. influenced by futurist painter and composer Luigi Russolo – one of the first experimental
composers – the series of phonograph-like wooden boxes compose the exhibition, re-interpreting audio
input into a muffled atmospheric output, twisting and amplifying the original soundtracks.
