換気扇サイザー│Ventilathesizer (from “ELECTRONICOS FANTASTICOS!“)[Performance]

換気扇に光源とオリジナルの羽根を取りつけ、回転によって明滅する光を小型太陽電池で電気信号として拾うことで音を鳴らす。羽根の枚数の違いによって音程が変化し、音階をつくり出す。奏者は換気扇の間を飛び回りながら、あるいは羽根に直接手で触れたり、モーターの回転数を操って演奏する。
裏路地に並ぶ換気扇はシンセサイザー。換気回り、歓喜増し、感極まる!
A player catches lights passing through ventilators as electric signals with small solar batteries and makes sounds.
Attach light bulbs to the back of ventilators, and replace the fan blades with special made blades. The musical pitch changes depending on the speed of the motor and the number of the blades.
The ventilators lined up in a back alley are a synthesizer.
