Open Source Gallery is pleased to present Rumble ‘n’ Rattle, a project by Albrecht Fersch.

Beginning in April, Fersch has taken up residency in the gallery, sourcing materials from the community to transform the space and its occupants into a participatory instrument. During his time at Open Source, Fersch will create costumes covered with mallets, sticks, and thick wires and hang objects that will make sounds when they are struck. The resulting installation will be an instrument that is activated by movement and dependent on the ever-changing relationship between gallery visitors and the machines. Within this instrument, bodies will become sound and sounds will become communication, without the need for known language. Learn more at open-source-gallery.org/albrecht-fersch
