Sleep Patterns and Musical Chairs

Wardill, Emily LU (2023)
Abstract
Sleep Patterns and Musical Chairs takes the imaginary of the nation state – projecting the patterns that car headlights make on our ceiling at night whilst musical hallucinations of national anthems bleed in through the space. The architecture becomes a part of the piece through these accidental moving highlights that make us think of not being able to sleep whilst pointing towards a fake origin- the cars never existed and are represented through a remnant without an original. The soundtrack is composed from distorted national anthems that fight with each other, change keys and speeds to sound intoxicated , puzzle themselves into logics that wrap around into nothingness and descend into enthusiastic destruction.
