'The Voice Index' (2015-16) is a fixed sound installation with four live voices, which investigates the fine detail an intense listening experience inherent to the spectral manipulations made possible through voice resynthesis.

This work aims to suggest that human interaction, the act of listening and the imagination constitute the full spectrum of...2020-04-3006 min
