ELEKTROLAB

Rachida ZIANI / Dewi DE VREE

Rachida ZIANI and Dewi DE VREE have been developing Elektrolab, a series of electrical music performances and installations based on electrochemical principles. By making an “open” battery in which the different elements are taken apart, enlarged and amplified, they show the process of generating electricity. Various sound interfaces are developed, in which parameters of electronic sounds can be controlled by the manipulation of different chemical reactions. Elektrolab emphasizes the sensual perception and the physical control of invisible processes.
