Laure Drogoul - Amplified knitting

Amplified knitting by Laure Drogoul, 2007


An event highlighted at Craftzine featured Laure Drogoul's amplified knitting project. Nice photo, but I would have loved to experience the primary sensory experience in this project. The audio must be intriguing.

As the Baltimore Sun notes:

Depending on the knitters' numbers, their speed and Drogoul's soundboard manipulations of wooden, plastic and steel needles, both fat and slender, a unique acoustic universe is revealed. It may conjure the echoing footsteps of someone spelunking blindly in a cavernous room. Or it may evoke the collective heartbeat of a knitting bee, lost in the repetitive rhythm of handiwork.
