Zimoun + Hannes Zweifel

200 prepared dc-motors, 2000 cardboard elements creates installation done by Zimoun in collaboration with Architect Hannes Zweifel 2011

"The sound sculptures and installations of Zimoun are graceful, mechanized works of playful poetry, their structural simplicity opens like an industrial bloom to reveal a complex and intricate series of relationships, an ongoing interplay between the «artificial» and the «organic». It‘s an artistic research of simple and elegant systems to generate and study complex behaviors in sound and motion. Zimoun creates sound pieces from basic components, often using multiples of the same prepared mechanical elements to examine the creation and degeneration of patterns." words by Tim Beck zimoun-2
