Spaghetti Chorus is a slow communication device that transforms voice messages into music and light, intermingling along a winding, luminous thread. Two microphones are connected by 140 continuous meters of intertwined, glowing LED tubes, suspended from the vaulted ceiling of the Scotiabank Great Hall. Visitors speak into one of the microphones and watch their voices slowly transform into music and light, traveling in shafts of colour while creating singular melodic moments.
Spaghetti Chorus is a new edition of Daily tous les jours’ Hello series which emphasizes the music and harmonics of human speech through poetic messaging systems. Created for a world so often confined to the size of a screen, this series creates musical bridges between people in real life, offering an invitation to connect in person, beyond words.
