TONundTON 2015

The installation at the Ortsmuseum in Meilen consisted of forty-six wooden stelae measuring 100 × 17 × 17 centimetres each, on which stood spools of pastel-coloured silk thread. Theres Stämpfli accentuated the spools of thread, which came from a textile mill, with little ceramic rods painted in colours that were also reminiscent of the rods used in the pick-up sticks game known as Mikado.
Peter K Frey made the very echoey room reverberate with a composition con- sisting of six sinusoidal sounds gliding from one pitch to another, each in their own frequencies. The whole induced a highly memorable mood that inspired visitors to associate freely.

	Die Installation im Ortsmuseum Meilen bestand aus 46 Holzstelen mit den Massen 100 × 17 × 17 cm, auf denen pastellfarbene Seidenfadenspulen standen. Die Spulen aus einer Weberei akzentuierte Theres Stämpfli mit farbig bemalten Keramikstäbchen, die auch an die Stäbchen des Mikadospiels erinnerten. Peter K Frey brachte den sehr halligen Raum mittels einer Komposition, die aus sechs in eigenen Frequenzen glissierenden Sinustönen bestand, zum Klingen. Im Zusammenspiel ergab sich eine sehr beeindruckende Stimmung, welche die Besucherinnen und Besucher zu verschiedensten Assoziationen inspirierte.
