I Am Sitting in a Room
Reinterpretation of Alvin Lucier’s I Am Sitting in a Room (1969)
Audio Reconstruction: [SoundCloud]I Am Sitting in a Room (Reinterpretation) extends the doctoral research through an iterative acoustic process, in which recorded sound is repeatedly re-amplified and re-recorded within a space. The work reconfigures Alvin Lucier’s original experiment as a methodological framework for examining how spatial resonance accumulates and transforms over time.
Through this iterative process, the work parallels the logic of convolution and impulse response, revealing how acoustic characteristics are not only captured but progressively reinforced and restructured. In this sense, resonance is understood not as a static property, but as a temporal process shaped through repetition, feedback, and material conditions.
This process positions listening as an active engagement with spatial transformation, where the listener perceives not only sound, but the gradual emergence of the space itself as an acoustic structure.
