The Prospects of Recording focuses on the sound studio as a specific space of recording and broadcasting, of experimentation and control, of action and documentation, and of staging and manipulation of sound. The video installation uses an acoustic absorber panel redesigned in the format of 16:9 to serve as a screen for the projection. The video was shot in the iconic Amsterdam-based Steim Studio #1. The venue is used to stage a performance which interacts with the architecture and acoustics on site and examines the effects of their manipulation.
