Description

What happens when everyday objects become music? The "Readymade Synth" by Antoni Rayzhekov and Martin Murer makes it possible: Unaltered objects like road gravel, gears, or leaves are placed on a sensor surface and instantly transform into sound sources. The shape of the objects determines the spectral properties of the synthesized sound.

A keyboard controls pitch and timing, while the arrangement of the objects shapes the timbre. The instrument opens up new possibilities for musical expression and invites exploration of the sonic potential of familiar things. The composition "In Advance of the Broken Sine" – developed with Matthias Leboucher – uses materials such as plastic gears, geometric shapes, a white thread, and leaves to create unusual sound worlds.
