Florian Hecker Chimerizations

"Chimerizations features a radically new form of documentation of Florian Hecker's sound works that dramatize the phenomenon of Auditory Chimaeras. The publication presents the documentation of Hecker's recent sound pieces: Magnitude Estimation, 2010; Hecker Leckey Sound Voice Chimera, 2011; Bregman/Deutsch Chimera, 2011; Chimerization (MIT Project), 2011 Chimerization 2012; and Hinge, 2012. The images, installation-reference and productions stills, have been altered by Hecker using a Sift Flow Algorithm. The result is varied and idiosyncratic, with the same image undergoing multiple translations, effectively creating a visual parallel to the chimeric phenomenon produced in the sound works they document" --Publisher description.
