STREAM

STREAM merges the music of San Antonio with the flow of San Pedro Creek. When a sound is made into the microphone sculpture, it becomes visualized as animated light along a 250’ waterfall in real time. While the sculpture is dormant, the lights are activated by the broadcast signal from Texas Public Radio.

    STREAM merges the music of San Antonio with the flow of San Pedro Creek. When a sound is made into the microphone sculpture, it becomes visualized as animated light along a 250’ waterfall in real time. While the sculpture is dormant, the lights are activated by the broadcast signal from Texas Public Radio.

    The bronze microphone sculpture is made to look like a 1950s era microphone, similar to ones you might have seen at the Alameda Theater. Inside the sculpture is a live microphone that is connected to a custom hardware and software system, designed by the artist, which translates the sound into a colorful light display.

    STREAM fusiona la música de San Antonio con el flujo del arroyo San Pedro. Cuando se emite un sonido en la escultura del micrófono, este se visualiza como una animación de luz que recorre una cascada de 250 pies en tiempo real. Mientras la escultura está en reposo, las luces se activan con la señal de transmisión de Texas Public Radio.

    La escultura de micrófono de bronce está diseñada para parecerse a los micrófonos de la década de 1950, similares a los que se usaban en el Teatro Alameda. Dentro de la escultura hay un micrófono real conectado a un sistema personalizado de hardware y software, diseñado por el artista, que traduce el sonido en una animación luminosa y colorida.
