Pulse Memorial
SessionRecollection
DescriptionThe "Pulse Memorial" is a participatory art installation exploring multichannel web audio streaming, data sonification, and field recordings to address queer grief and erasure. Inspired by Toni Morrison's concept of "disremembrance," it offers an immersive sonic experience fostering collective remembrance. Sound is generated by combining data sonification and field recordings into an 8-channel score, then transmitted via WebRTC to participants—one channel per device—for a multi-channel sonic event. This project transforms memorials from passive, site-specific events to community-driven experiences. It provokes curiosity about digital media’s role in preserving cultural memory and amplifying marginalized voices.
