The Megaphone Project (Uncredited)

the megaphone project

Created and directed by Madeleine Flynn and Tim Humphrey, the megaphone project is a discovered world of sound and physical contortion that is about the world of private and public broadcast and how we physically engage with it.Twenty-five striking red megaphones of different shapes and sizes recreate the childhood miracle of wireless tincan telephones, and the joyful manipulations of voices that are naturally reinforced through simple acoustics. Voices then mysteriously and ambiguously return via our custom-designed wireless audio network.This is a sound work that is inherently ambiguous, where everyone becomes part of a grand sonic texture, discovering amplifications of themsself and others, leaving instructions, exhortations and loving messages.The megaphones create an interactive performance field.
