We (S4NTP) have been exploring this multiplicity of concepts of “sound system” design, by collecting unused speakers to create their own loudspeaker orchestra, currently composed of 30+ loudspeakers ranging from large big Hifi boxes and professional studio monitors to broken toy speakers. The system includes open source performance software developed by the collective that explores different approaches to sound systems. In contrast to most sound systems, ours is multichannel and based on speakers chosen for sonic diversity, building a bridge to Acousmonium-like approaches to sound diffusion. At Hosek Contemporary, we will present this Non-Trivial Sound System as a site-specific sonic sculpture with a wide range of possibilities explored by our participants: as a concert performance environment for multiple players, as an autonomous system that activates installation works, and hybrid experiments between these. The following members of the Society For Nontrivial Pursuits are participating: Keyi An, Antuum, Ruben Bass, Alberto de Campo, Shu Chon, distante (Antonio Duarte), Erbse, Bruno Gola, Lilu Herlambang, Luis Küffner, Valentin Lux, Muyang, Ricardo Rodrigues, Lili Sandor, Elisabeth Scholz, Jakob Schreiber, Sashe Urdovski, anne wellmer, Aliaksandra Yakubouskaya, and surprise guests.
