Both the resonance of the casings and the mechanical movements of the needle are amplified, creating a composition that transforms over time. The motors of the sewing machines are individually controlled, resulting in a poetic interplay of varying rhythms. These rythms gradually shape into tones, forming an evolving soundscape. link full registration singer duet https://lyssahoterdoom.com/singer-duet Mon, 17 Feb 2025 11:24:48 +0000 Lyssah Oterdoom https://lyssahoterdoom.com/singer-duet Work: Sound installation Location: Sonic City AG, Utrecht Date: 01/2025 Details: Singer Duet is part of an ongoing research into the acoustic properties of electric sewing machines. Both the resonance of the housings and the mechanical movements of the needle are amplified, creating a composition that transforms over time. The motors of both sewing machines are tuned separately, creating a poetic interplay in different rhythms. link full registration aeolian loop https://lyssahoterdoom.com/aeolian-loop Tue, 18 Feb 2025 10:06:00 +0000 Lyssah Oterdoom https://lyssahoterdoom.com/aeolian-loop Work: Sound installation Location: De Vecht, Utrecht Date: 04/2024 Details: Aeolian Loop is part of an ongoing research into the acoustic properties of tape machines and tape loops. An eight meter long tape loop has been crossed between trees whilst the wind manipulates the speed of the playback. resonating mechanisms https://lyssahoterdoom.com/resonating-mechanisms Sun, 18 Jun 2023 07:45:17 +0000 Lyssah Oterdoom https://lyssahoterdoom.com/resonating-mechanisms Work: Interactive sound installation Location: HKU Oudenoord, UTRECHT Date: 06/2023 Details: Resonating Mechanisms is a sound sculpture built from pvc pipes, air pumps, servo motors, exciter speakers and contact mics. The work explores the power of analog feedback loops. Starting from the base of the sculpture air gets pushed through the pipes system. Exciter speakers amplify the sound being picked up by hanging microphones within the same sculpture. Whilst the hanging microphones are being controlled with servo motors, a chaotic, uncontrollable creature is being created. The sculpture creates a sense of causal relation between the visitor and the modulation of the sound.

Different spaces are created, using the fog and the beamer, each of which interacts with the audience in a different way. The reaction of the visitor to these spaces is essential for the perception of the light and the created safe space. The work explores the power of this collaboration and to what extent you can choreograph the audience with it.In collaboration with: Jonas van Son, Esther van Leeuwen, Dewi MacDonald, Tijn Olling, Job Ketelaar, Lara Adriolo and Roshan Roeters. meet-up https://lyssahoterdoom.com/meet-up Tue, 15 Nov 2022 11:12:34 +0000 Lyssah Oterdoom https://lyssahoterdoom.com/meet-up Work: Experimental film Date: 10/2022 Details: A man searches for himself and hides from himself at the same time. Meet-up is a visualization of a dissociative experience. When your body and soul feel out of sync. You’re present but far away at the same time. In this film a man’s body is searching for his soul and his soul is searching for his body. While searching they are also subconsciously hiding from each other. In the end he lets himself be found by presenting himself. They finally integrate and it’s an ecstatic experience. They go their separate ways again. The man is briefly at peace, but the search will no doubt start again. In collaboration with Oisìn Duggan Metcalf. visuals miel https://lyssahoterdoom.com/visuals-miel Mon, 14 Nov 2022 21:06:00 +0000 Lyssah Oterdoom https://lyssahoterdoom.com/visuals-miel I Work: Audioreactive visuals  Location: De Helling, UTRECHT Date: 06/2022 link to full video Details: Audioreactive visuals made using Touchdesigner combined with shot footage of the performer Mila Meijer.

I work from a curiosity about how the world appears to us. Through the senses, but also through the techniques we use to grasp our perception. I draw my inspiration from processes in matter: from natural phenomena and the unfolding of media.  Using media, recording equipment, and everyday objects outside their fixed function, I investigate how our perception can shift, revealing connections that might otherwise go unnoticed. Rhythm, noise, and structure play an important role, inviting the viewer to engage in a different way of listening. My work consists mainly of installations in which sound, time, and light subtly shape and extend our perception.In this way, I try to create space for a world that does not need to be explained, but experienced. dds Education 2021 - 2025           Image and Media Technology                                 @ Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht 2023                       Minor Music and Technology                                 @Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht 2023                       Internship, Studio Philip Vermeulen 2020 - 2021          Audiovisual Media                                @ Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht 2013 - 2019          Gymnasium                                @ Praedinius Gymnasium Performances and exhibitions 01.26 Luna Young Masters 2026 @LUNA Festival, Leeuwarden 09.25 Singer Harmony @EXboot, Utrecht 06.25 EXPOSURE@HKU Oudenoord, Utrecht 06.25 Kabul X FLUX/X X QORE (VJ) @KABUL à GoGo, Utrecht 01.25 Sonic City  (expo)@AG, Utrecht 06.23 ZOZY (VJ)@Summerdeis, Drachten05.23 - 10.23 HKU Waterlab (expo) @Forteiland Pampus, Ijmeer 11.02.23 Poopy Papi (VJ) @ Sissi’s Expo, Amsterdam 27.05.22 MIEL (VJ)@ EXF Herman Brood Academie, Utrecht 10.06.22 De Woordentuin (VJ)@ Best Kept Secret, Hilvarenbeek
