3bits - SyncLost | audio installation

SyncLost is a multi-user installation for immersion in the history of electronic music. From a complex timeline, rhythms and sub-rhythms merge to create new sounds. The project’s objective is to create an interface where users can view all the connections between the main styles of electronic music through visual and audible feedback. The choice is individual and leads to a collective consequence in the spatial visualization of information.

Sean Martindale - FREE | installation


Canadian artist Sean Martindale created this interesting outdoor installation located in Grange Park,
 Toronto. In 24hrs, Sean used 21,633 feet of salvaged nylon string to write the word "FREE" between 
two parallel chain link fences. Sean explains "The word FREE refers to the public aspect of my projects, 
where I create work experienced primarily by accidental audiences.I outlined the word FREE by tying 
strings within and through the properties of the barrier / constraining structure of the chainlink fence." 
This installation is a beautiful inspirational surprise in an unexpected place.

The XX | A Sculpture of an Album | Vinyl Factory, London


The sculpture is the brainchild of Partizan director Saam Farahmand, who is keen to push the boundaries of what music 
videos can offer. “Music videos are a 2D visual interpretation of a song,” he explains. “We are interested in creating spaces 
that exist as a 3D physical interpretation of a song or an album, and that is what we have created for the album xx.

”The piece consists of three large audio-visual units that are displayed in the space, appearing somewhat like giant iPods. 
Each contains a film of one of the three members of The XX, shot by Farahmand, as they play through their 
eponymously-titled debut album. Alongside displaying the beautiful films, the units also emit a lightshow that 
reacts to the music. The overall affect is simple yet compelling.


“It shares sensibilities with art installations, but it should not be considered in this context,” continues Farahmand. 
“It is in essence a physical music video, a looping shrine to the album that you cannot compress, send or turn off. 
We have to understand that these pop-up ‘rooms’ and ‘spaces’ should and will become as commonplace as music 
videos, bridging the gap until we have the technology to ‘stream’ a 3D experience through our home computer as if 
it was a YouTube clip. The xx are the perfect ambassadors for the medium. Their music is mesmerising, 
and deeply physically affecting.”

The installation will be on show at The Vinyl Factory (accessed via Phonica record store on 51 Poland Street, W1) 
until Tuesday, January 12. In addition, The Vinyl Factory has created a deluxe vinyl version of The xx’s album to 
celebrate the event, which is on sale at Phonica. The package will include three prints of stills taken from Farahmand’s 
footage, one of each band member, signed by each.
