Kinetic installation programmed to be in operation during 24 continuous hours. Within this time frame, an algorithm increase resonant qualities of 16 channels of white noise, diffused through a custom-made amplification system.

2 surfaces of 310x230cm were designed and installed in relation to the architecture of the exhibition space. The surfaces rotate independently in a fixed angle, acting as passive filters.

Fall was specially designed and produced for the Wasserturm in Berlin. A structure designed by Henry Gill and built by the English Waterworks Company, which adjacent machine hall was the first concentration camp in Nazi Germany in the first half of 1933.
