about

The 34-minute piece Sounding the Collection is a recording of an improvised session by Mo Aung that took place at the prestigious Powerhouse Museum Ultimo, on 6 October 2022.

Recorded as part of Powerhouse Late, the performance explores the curious and wonderful sounds of the Powerhouse Collection. From automaton bird cages to art deco clocks, Sounding the Collection, is a sonic archive from the Powerhouse that brings objects sitting silent in the collection to audition.

Sounds from the archive were sampled through analog samplers, drum machines, and synths.

Instruments: Roland SP 555, Boss RC-1, Boss RE-20, Yamaha MG10XU, Apple iPad, Apple iPhone
