Tree Organ

Max Streicher

2012,

In collaboration with Garnet Willis

An inflatable organ made by attaching handmade wooden organ pipes to inflatable trees.  Sound is produced by air leaking through the pipes. The pipe valves are controlled through a keyboard, midi and computer. It can be played live or through preprogrammed files, in this case, Bach's Goldberg variations. The programs play infinite variations on Bach's variations.
