They Shoot Lasers, Don't They? - Adam Tinkle and Joe Mariglio - aka CREOSOTA
Electroacoustic musicians and sound sculptors Adam Tinkle and Joe Mariglio - henceforth collectively known as Creosota - explore the visual, sonic, and theatrical potentials of projected light, vibrated fluids, and laser microphony, in works inspired by Inferometrics. Inferometric techniques are best known for their use in Cold War-era spying. Shine a laser at a window, measure the displacement of the reflection--poof, you have the sound of the conversation occurring inside the room. Creosota's reframing of this technology and the resulting artistic revelations may also prove helpful for those seeking to welcome Musean hypernumbers, cymatics, or music tuned to 432Hz into their lives!
Creosota, are responsible for recorded artifacts, interactive installations, and long durational performance installations involving transduction of trains and other metal architectures. Their sculpture, the Shantytown Scrapblaster, was permanently installed at the Media Art Center San Diego in 2014. Their collaborations date back to 2005, during their studies with Anthony Braxton, Alvin Lucier, and Ron Kuivila, at Wesleyan University. From 2010 to 2013, they led the Universal Language Orchestra, an ensemble of elementary school-aged musical novices who improvised on and composed for invented instruments.
