Ghost Installation: Internationella biblioteket

Hernandez, Katt LU (2022)
Abstract
Ghost Installation: Internationella biblioteket is one of several "Ghost Installation" compositions in the project. Using small, consumer grade speakers and looping sound collage files, these sound installation compositions are placed in multichannel arrays into the sites they address. This piece was installed beside the former site of the Stockholm International Library. The library was closed in 2020, and much of it remained empty, with bare shelves and moving boxes still evident in much of the building, at the time of this installation in late 2022. The main entrance halls had also been concerted into a franchise office supply shop. This installation was made with looping sound collage files on eight MiFa A1 speakers.
