Earth Moves  
 
TFT/DVD installation: 05.02 widescreen / June 2006
Semiconductor: Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt
 

Earth Moves is a continuation of Semiconductors exploration into how unseen forces affect the fabric of our world. The limits of human perception are exposed, revealing a world which is unstable and in a constant state of animation as the forces of acoustic waves come into play on our surroundings.
The south-east of England is explored through a series of five audio controlled photographic panoramas. Semiconductor collected sound recordings and photographs on location at: The A23 at Pease Pottage, Witterings NT reserve, Findon Valley, John St Brighton and Adur Valley cement factory. The sounds were used to re-animate the landscape at each location.

Earth Moves is an Arts Council England commission and is permanently installed at the South East offices, Brighton.

Earth Moves was developed from an idea initiated during participation in Greg Davilles City Running, Brighton March 2006.
