New Delhi Audiograph

New Delhi Audiograph at KHŌJ International Artists’ Association, New Delhi, India, 02.02.2013

New Delhi Audiograph is an interactive, audiovisual installation. The work treats some elements of the Hindi language as a structural foundation of a musical composition. New Delhi Audiograph uses a motion tracking system that enables the audience to interact with the piece.
