**** [http://greenlee.02909.com/ Shawn Greenlee] - '''Occasions''': ''Occasions produces subtle interactions of synthetic tones mediated by the resonance of space and the reception of the listener. It is a long form, audio-installation utilizing a 12-channel speaker array to project sound in the exhibition space. Each of the twelve speakers produces a unique tone gliding between established frequencies. The twelve speakers are divided into two groups which move asynchronously thus creating a fluctuation in acoustic and psychoacoustic phenomena as the glissandi interact. When listening, what one will notice most obviously are several beating frequencies and difference tones - and that the perception of these is in large part due to where the listener positions herself in relationship to the speakers. The sound of the HVAC will begin to wax and wane as Occasions interferes with its site.''
