New MONA music artwork

[The Tasmanian]

If anyone is interested, I have a new commission running in Mona.
It uses 33 speakers along a 80 meter wall, opposite a massive sandstone wall where the sound bounces off.
Its a 2 hr vocal work (no loops)
Launched to a massive crowd 2 nights ago - where it played to the crowd constantly for 6 hours.
If anyone gets into MONA - it will continue to run for the next few years.

Congratulations Chris, that's great news! Was this something you pitched to them or did they approach you?

Great.
Congrats on that!

Congrats Chris! I'll be sure to check out when I'm back in town. Whats the tech behind this one?

Thanks gents
Just simple playback Myles - no fancy stuff like the tunnel.
Maybe we'll add some master volume automation through various times/periods of the day into MAX - yet to be discovered what levels work when.
Daniel - yes I was commissioned to do a work in this particular part of the gallery.
> 2 more coming next year...

Pinned VU meters work at all times.

Nice one Chris. I enjoyed your tunnel, so no doubt this one will be just as good!
