Ear Drop - Phase Wave
About: Yiding Zhang (China) is a cross-media artist and independent musician active between Wuhan and London. His practice spans sound installation and audiovisual performance, focusing on the intersection of architecture, society, and sonic experience.
Rooted in postmodern conditions and digital-age media, his work investigates human perception and affect through experimental approaches to sound. Currently, his research and artistic practice explore urban acoustic spaces with a particular emphasis on Brutalist architecture, employing field recording, musique concrète, and modular synthesis to construct expanded sonic and visual environments.
Piece: Phase Wave is an audiovisual performance that explores the materiality of sound and its spatial resonance. Using modular synthesis, processed field recordings, and digital visual projections, the piece unfolds as shifting waves of texture and rhythm. Inspired by architectural forms and Brutalist aesthetics, the work seeks to translate structural solidity into fluid sonic gestures, where concrete becomes vibration and resonance becomes image. Phase Wave invites the audience into a temporal architecture of sound and light, a space where perception oscillates between the tactile and the ephemeral.
