Photismograms are the artists’ abstract photographic representations of whole songs. Created using their hand-built Release Wave Sequencer, which illuminates sound waves, projecting them through a body of water, translating them into coloured light.
Each work captures a song in a single synesthesic photographic image. Reflecting upon the passage and perception of time and emotion through the ephemeral qualities of music and light.
