BEATS (1994)
for sine wave generators, amplifiers and speakers

Two stable sine wave generators create a perfect 7:4 sept. A second pair of less stable oscillators is tuned as close as possible to these frequencies but due to the imperfection slow beatings are created which create a permanently changing rhythmical structure. One of the pitches is tuned to a room resonance.

GRIGIO UNO (1996)
for sine wave generators, amplifiers and open bass speakers

By modulation of a low sine wave and acoustical closed circuit the harmonic spectrum of a bass speaker (normally not audible) can be clearly heard and "analyzed" by the resulting rhythmical structure.

GRIGIO DUE (1998)
for sine wave generators, amplifiers and horn speakers

one modulated and one unmodulated sine wave form a major second (ratio 9:8) creating overtone spectra (as in GRIGIO UNO) and ringmodulation spectra.

7:6 (2001)
for metal sheets, transducers, sine wave generators and amplifiers

A minor third (ratio 7:6) created with sine waves sounds from two metal sheets and is modulated.

SCHÜDDELN (2007)
for metal cups, transducers, sine wave generators and amplifiers

A chord with ratios 6:7:9 created with sine waves and transducers sounds from four metal cups and is modulated due to very slow beatings.
