Entry DescriptionAMA-KO is a coined word for 'Raindrums' in Japanese.
Berlin-based Multimedia Artist Yoko Seyama and Composer Dirk P Haubrich have created a Meditative light-sound installation performed with music by Louis Couperin: Prélude non mesuré in D Major, played by Sasha Pushkin.
Five steel drums hanging in the centre of the space, made to ring with drops of melting ice in fluorescent colours.
Sustainability ApproachThe main element, steel drums, are 'instruments' for this installation which is flexible because they can be installed in different spaces. Most materials, like metal grids, and wires are reusable. The hanging function is necessary when the space has already hanging points otherwise, we can use truss systems.
