Karaoke Deth Machine

Posted on February 15, 2020July 21, 2021

The Karaoke Deth Machine is a silvery podium that makes really weird noises. It is accompanied by an effects steeped microphone that feeds back into itself and lets participants explore creating their own weird sounds.

The Karaoke Deth Machine is an experiment in spontaneous sound, entirely affected by the surrounding elements, including the participants themselves. A boombox is secured tightly in a podium that resonates with feedback caused by minimalistic music and noise and a strategically placed microphone. But wait! It can also be sung into like any other karaoke machine. Or maybe it can be manipulated to make noise in some other way. The participant truly determines what the Karaoke Deth Machine is and how it is interacted with.
