CANAPONE

Sometimes I observe such a frantic movement of tiny twigs or leaves. This movement is strange, because it occurs at inappropriate times, in completely windless weather. It’s as if currents of energy flow through the plant.
The steel band is very stiff and springy, with slight vibrations it emits a characteristic metallic sound, transferring the vibrations to neighboring circles. The viewer does not know how I obtained the vibrations. To get this specific movement I used low-frequency sounds (infrasound), which I vary the amplitude and intensity (loudness) of the interactions, this affects the intensification or calming of the vibrations of the object.
The object begins to vibrate at an unexpected moment and this lasts about 30 seconds, then stops and after some time it gradually comes to life again.
