infradroner is a site-responsive sound installation which contains audio recordings taken from a number of electronic appliances found within the Camden Art Centre building; such as a boiler, alarm system, plant room control panels, freezer, dishwasher, light switch, server, and photocopier. The high frequency signals have been amplified and distorted using FX pedals to create a soundscape of shifting electronic drones played out into the space. Situated throughout the internal infrastructure of the building and embedded into the day-to-day operations of Camden Art Centre, these minute sounds are normally too slight to notice. In this way infradroner is a magnification of electricity, each link in the chain adding its own texture, through to the speakers playing it into the space where the recordings were first taken.

infradroner was exhibited at Stepping into my cultures at Camden Art Centre, 2022.
