Playing feedback
Set up for two players: 2 microphones (Shure 58)--> mixer with 2 lines--> DBX compressor (stereo)--> 2 active loudspeakers.
Set the compressor to: threshold - all the way down, ratio - all the way up.
Play the feedback with moving the microphone towards and away from the speaker. Use the EQ in order to get low tones.
Movement
Create repetitive motion which communicates with the machines, and perform it in a loop.
