In the middle of nowhere (Sylvia Bossu)

Ten matrix printers are working beings who 'speak sound' continuously and linked shredder (paper snips)  spew the printed paper into small snips.
In sound installations visual artist Sylvia BOSSU (1962-1995, FR) decontextualised the original function of daily objects like working printers and listening at two showcases with  a multi amplified radio CD players.  At the expositions of  Montelimar (2008, FR), Sound Time Material (2009, FR) and last at SuperBodies (Hasselt, Triennale 2012) Bossu's art installations like 'In the middle of nowhere' (photo) are sounding sculptures.
Undependently  for music projects in the nineties I was still sampling  my matrix printer's sound  with my Ensoniq MIRAGE sampler. In the eighties, Baudouin Oosterlynck (B) invited visitors to move with the listening body to  "sound integrated" showcases, walls and floors.
