The Incredible Sonovox
“Amazing device that gives voice to musical instruments. The Sonovox consists of one or two louspeakers placed on the throat that play the source sound. The performer whispers the words while the speakers stand in for the voice box. Used for the talking train in Disney’s Dumbo, uncountable radio promos, a tube-in-the-mouth version “Talk Box” was used by Frampton to make his guitar sing, and all-electronic “Vocoder” versions are still used in current pop music.”
Slack Tide by Shay Kun
This month at La Montagne Gallery paintings by Shay Kun are on show till February 13th. Kun’s work combines past painting movements such as the Hudson River School in the 19th Century, with the ever so present ironic humour. The landscapes portray an innocence and eminence that nature conjure’s; however he equally show’s the abuse’s to these spaces and human invaders from a optimistice viewpoint.
