Saturday November 15th 2004, 7pm:
Transmission from Cesig duon, sea level, Pembrokeshire Coast National

2x audio technica binaural microphones
2x whirlwind 5 metre shielded cables
2x fender mini deluxe amplifiers
2x woolworths 10 litre plastic buckets
2x motorola mobile phones
In Preseli, West Wales, Whitehead draws a small triangular field on the
ground. At 2 points he places the amplifiers inside the buckets. Wearing
binaural microphones on his wrists, the resulting feedback field is sensitive
to any small movements he makes, and to changes in his environment. This
sound is transmitted via 2 mobile phones to Cardiff.
RECEPTION:
2x motorola mobile phones
soundcraft mixer
2x dca-550 power amplifiers
3x tannoy t8 speakers
Signals are received by 2 mobile phones, and projected into a triangular
speaker configuration consisting of 2 channels plus a phase-inverted mono
mix. Whitehead's actions within the remote environment are expanded and
relocated into the receiving space.
TEST is a new research and development project examining the translocation
of movement, touch, and thought via sound.
