Oog+Oor 2014 – The Rietveld Busstop synesthesia

june 2014-2015

The award winning landmark Rietveld Busstop, an art deco morris column under the city hall building of Eindhoven, is annually subject to adjustment by an inspired artist/designer. This year the trustees (Gerrit Rietveld bushalte foundation) chose Studio Vrijdag inventors Paul and Sappho Panhuysen to display their transformation.

Oog + Oor (Eng: eye + ear) is a sudoko based spectacle of image and sound sequals and paterns. 365 fragments from the carillon on the rooftop of the city hall are chosen to play one composition per day, commenced by the hour.

Thanks to: MAD emergent art center René Paré, Richard van Roy (www.madlab.nl) | Rosemarie Seutiëns, carillonist of the city Eindhoven | Royal Eijsbouts Bell-foundry | RB Design, sudoku data
