Issue 33: Power
There are so many incarnations of power I didn’t want to choose just one. The hypothetical self improvement track is designed to make you notice/feel sexual, spiritual and aggressively powerful. I’m thinking about the implications of power, and how aggression or hostility in many different forms is often a byproduct, but I don’t want to ignore positive sexual power, and spiritual power too. The other element here is corporate culture and how this is effecting the way we view possibilities of self. The work comes out of contemporary cultures obsession with multitasking, quick turnaround health products, trance healing, alchemy – superstition, technology.
Samples used for ultimate satisfaction and results, calming bells, 256 voices; healthy body, subliminal audio to attract women, inaudible healing 50Hz, brain enhancing binaural, ASMR for relaxation.
Laura Hunt is a Sydney based artist and musician. Her work lies at the intersection of performance, video and installation. Influenced by how inaudible, subliminal and instrumental sound affects us; Hunt creates works formed by a desire to be re-shaped by sound. Her work has been exhibited and performed in Australia and internationally – most notably, Double Vision and The Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney with WDK, Underbelly Arts Island Salon in collaboration with Nikki Walkerden and The Sydney Opera House with band Ghastly Spats. Hunt has recently completed a residency at Cité International Des Arts – Paris.
