David Schafer

"Binary Complex (excerpt)"

From Five Works

Los Angeles based visual and sound artist David Schafer composed “Binary Complex” to accompany a sculpture. The piece was generated from a permutation based on the artwork’s two sets of 12 units made up equally of two colours. Each of the four hues was assigned a note based on Alexander Scriabin’s concept of colour music, with 924 arrangements for each set.
