      the opensourcepraying speaker

      glass, electronica, steel, concrete, 2018

       

      the opensourcepraying speaker out of glass recites a prayer in german, english, spanish, russian and hebrew. it interacts via an ultra-sound-sensor with passing by objects: the closer an object approaches, the louder it speaks.

      inspirations

      a creation is always a reproduction of a prior situation or existing system or object. merely the cosmetic shape or shell is being gathered together within a new perspective. when a tool, machine or ai system is generated, any prior thought, system of belief or conclusion of its maker’s mind is reproduced one way or another. yet, it often needs a child, a machine or entire society to hold a mirror in front of the maker’s eyes that this one can see what it actually created.

      .

      tools have three functions:

      1 to make something
      2 to thereby change the environment
      3 to change the people who use them

      the first function is intended, the second and third are unintended consequences of the first

      vilém flusser (1920 – 1991)

       

       

      completion does not exist by itself. only a second or further component(s) reveal wholeness. whether a symbiosis in natural spheres (mushroom & tree, bee & flower, woman & man, etc) take place, or within two entities (eyes & light, ears & sound, body & mind, question & answer in a mono/dialogue, etc), one part only exists because the other part has been there all along.

       

      wer in der beziehung steht, nimmt an einer wirklichkeit teil, das heißt: an einem sein, das nicht bloß an ihm und nicht bloß außer ihm ist.
      alle wirklichkeit ist ein wirken, an dem ich teilnehme, ohne es mir eignen zu können. wo keine Teilnahme ist, ist keine wirklichkeit. die teilnahme ist um so vollkommener, je unmittelbarer die berührung des du ist.

      martin buber (1878 – 1965)
