I created this interactive sculpture which plays music (in this case I play ambient cricket sounds) when the potential energy shoe is transformed to kinetic energy. The force of a collision between the shoe and some wire mesh causes a switch to trigger the music to begin to play from a sound recorder/ player.
The sculpture was made with found objects and follows the footsteps of collage and re-use. Influence to this art piece include works viewed at the New Museum in 2008.
