TRaNsMOGRiFiER is a downgrade shop that turns things into thingsTR. Mailing something in or drop something off for transmogrification – an unpredictable process that involves people, cardboard, electronics, and hot glue. Your ThingsTR will be returned in two weeks. There is no charge, but transmogrification is irreversible.
One Room is a site specific performance/installation created for the RISD: Locally Made exhibition. By knocking on the slats of the exhibition space’s walls, the room becomes a microtonal marimba. The sounds, captured and looped at changing intervals, evolve over the course of the hour into a rhythmic cloud. A single string is stretched from each mallet hit point, in the order they were played, visually tracing the sequence.
