Item Description:Von der Webseite Martin Riches': ""Knock on Wood" is a collaboration between composer Tom Johnson and artist Martin Riches. Control system and software are by Dipl.Ing. Manfred Fox. Shown for the first time at Circuit, centre d'art contemporain, Lausanne, for 6 weeks from 9th Feb. 2019. The installation uses ready-made wooden percussion instruments playing complex rhythms automatically that would be difficult - but not impossible - to play accurately by hand. Each group of instruments is made from a different kind of wood, each with its own defining timbre. The installation consists of five different groups of instruments, each playing in a cycle ranging from approximately 20 minutes to one hour."
