SONIC FABRIC by Alice Santoro
///ART
During my street research in 2003 I was walking around in my favorite Brooklyn area Park Slope. Happily surprised to walk into a lovely store 3Rliving
The lovely saleswoman showed me a beautiful piece of art: Sonic Fabric. This textile is woven from 50% recycled, recorded audiocassette tape and 50% cotton. She let me hear me the magical sounds this textile could produce by running a tape head over the surface.
Watch the movie Sonic Fabric in which Alice tells how she came to this idea. Inspired by two things: Tibetan prayer flags and sailboat tell-tail.
