Het Apollohuis, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
Fayfers
and Shmoos
October 1991
Made from found metal resonators,
3/16-inch threaded rod and washers.
Instruments are played by releasing
washers (moths) which cascade (flutter)
downward over threaded rod.
Instruments may be played
like an hour glass.
Sounds generated by fluttering
moths are colored by metal resonators.
Instruments are presented in standing
nstallations and as part of audience
participation pieces during
live performances.
