The work/ Installations

Sediment

Live speech that turns solid and falls, burying the oldest thing you said.

What we do

We set it behind a talk or a panel, turning the room's own speech into the decoration of the room.

What it is

Speak, and the words fall out of the air. The sentence you are still saying hangs weightless and grey, because the recogniser is still revising it; the instant it commits, each word becomes a rigid body and drops, burying the oldest thing you said. The interim and final split that every dictation interface throws away is the physics here: you cannot un-say a word that has landed.

Where it goes

A talk, a panel backdrop, or a listening wall at a conference. It turns a room's own speech into the decoration of the room.
