Simple Harmonic Motion (2011-)

Simple Harmonic Motion is an umbrella title for a number of conceptually related, but separate and distinct works.

Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM) is an ongoing series of work investigating complexity from simplicity – specifically the emergence of complex behaviour through the interaction of simple multilayered rhythms. It is an ode to chaos and order, driven by the collisions between human and machine; the harmonies, tensions and conflicts between science, technology, culture, ethics, tradition and religion (more on this perspective here). It is inspired by natural and mathematical phenomena, as well as works by the likes of Norman Mclaren, John Whitney, Steve Reich, John Cage, Gyorgi Ligeti and Edgar Varèse.

A number of these works are available to purchase at seditionart.com/memo-akten/collection/simple-harmonic-motion
