about

Found Calendar #2 / 01:00 / 2005
 
The analog answerphone has all but disappeared from use.  For some years, I have been collecting these unwanted machines, together with their incoming and outgoing audiocassettes. 
The messages left behind create a form of spontaneous archive: an audio library of unheard narratives and discarded voices, the date-stamped soliloquys of empty rooms.
In these two short sound sketches, the spoken messages have been digitally removed, leaving behind an automatic calendar of unattached hours and days. 

In Found Calendar #2 the time-stamps are edited into a litany of days, randomly repeating weeks of missing time.
 
Both sketches are representative of my interest in the relationship between time, place and sensation. Most recently this has focused on the perceptual and temporal geographies of sound and the loss inherent in the act of recording.
