Time Feels
----------

This is a sound work that evokes the resonance of the heart as a biological timekeeper and an emotional measure. It uses samples of my heartbeat recorded in various states of emotion, activity, and rest. Installed inside a bench that functions as a resonating cavity, the piece plays at low frequencies and the work's heavy sonic physicality is primarily felt more than heard. The bench is wrapped in a thick layer of memory foam, which moulds to the body of the person seated on it and temporarily reveals their imprints after they stand up.

* Please listen through headphones or a speaker with a sub. Due to the low frequencies the sound won't be audible otherwise
