SUBMORPH
Scientifically known as infrasound, sound can be derived into too many kinds. In this case we are talking about sub bass. Sub bass sounds are those approximately below 60 Hz and extending downward to include the lowest frequency humans can hear, typically 20 Hz. In this range, human hearing is not very sensitive, so sounds in this range tend to be felt more than heard. Sound systems often feature one or more subwoofer loudspeakers that are dedicated solely to amplifying sounds in the sub-bass range. Particular genres such as dub often feature the whole bass-line reproduced in sub-bass frequencies.The sub-bass listening activities often relating to “meditation”. This is because the low frequencies provokes the feeling of sensual and experiencing deep calmness. In the normal routine of meditation, sound can enhance the effect. This activity is called Primordial Sound Meditation (PSM). This project will improve and develop new experience of PSM.
This project highlight the forms of sound and vibrations as well as manipulating people’s emotion. It is meant to represent it in the form of awareness art installation whereby people could understand more about it and the most important aspect of the artwork is to literally feel the vibrations produce by the various frequencies of the sub bass. We may as well future some of its content in the form of visual just to make it understandable for the crowd.
