“amplified wire fence” it is an aleatory sound device composed of motors arranged on rural smooth wire fences, transforming them into a string instrument. the motors are activated by wind passing through an analog switch made with feathers and dry leaves. the movement of this switch works like a sail, opening and closing the circuit as the wind shifts, generating random results produced by nature itself. each motor has different terminals (rubber, nylon, plastic, etc.) that strike the wire strings when activated, resulting in varied sound textures.
