Now I hope I've managed to convert my video from the Art Museum to "Blogger format" - with sound and all... (Thanks to Sandra for reminding me about the how-to procedure in a comment to yesterday's post!)
Would you like being alone in a big museum, with these sounds as your only company?? ;-)
Atmospheric...well, O.K., downright spooky! Plus if a bad guy or spook were lurking there, you wouldn't be able to hear them over the music! I guess you are the star of your own horror movie...
ReplyDeleteGinny, as I don't believe in ghosts, they have a hard time scaring me. A living person suddenly turning up behind me camouflaged by all that noise might have frightened me half to death, though! ;)
DeleteIt sounds very eerie but what a neat experience.
ReplyDeleteAmy, it certainly took me "out of the ordinary" for while :)
DeleteIt is indeed a bit spooky and makes me wonder why some sounds are scary to the human ear and others are not.
ReplyDeleteMeike, I'd suggest that it has to do with dissonance - even if I suppose our definitions of that vary as well. (As so much else, I suppose it's a mix of things embedded in our genes, vs what we've grown up with.) - What this installation made me think of was the sea, and the sounds of whales (not from personal experience, but from videos I've seen...)
Deleteto much noise for me, but i would have been spooked because it is DARK. remember I am afraid of the dark. I am with you, it is the living spooks I fear that might populate that dark .
ReplyDeleteSandra, the lighting kept changing as well as the sound. The video was shot from a balcony upstairs, looking down on it. The photos in the previous post were taken downstairs, up close to it.
