Band of a Wimpy Kid
小屁孩乐队

Arduino Installation

co-author: BAI Yuxuan




This project uses a violin with only one string, a flute that only makes silly noises and two rattles to form an orchestra controlled by a physical computer. This device can be used for both artistic performances and audience participation.

In contrast to other automated musical instrument projects, the goal of this project is not to create a flashy machine that sets new trends. Instead, we want to bring joy to people through this little band that is full of children's behaviour. We mimic the behaviour of children by using a bunch of complex and bluff-looking props to make silly instruments, most of which are ready-made products found in the studio, making the whole process like a childhood treasure hunt.

此项目用一把只有一根弦的小提琴、一支只能发出愚蠢声音的笛子和两个拨浪鼓组成了一个由物理计算机控制的乐队。这个装置既可以用来进行艺术表演,也可以让观众参与其中。

与其他自动演奏乐器项目相比,此项目的目标并不是制造一台引领新潮流的华丽机器。除此之外,我们更想通过这支充满童趣的小乐队为大家带来快乐。我们模仿小孩子的行为,用捡来的一堆看起来很复杂很唬人的道具却做出来很傻的乐器,大部分道具都是在工作室里找到的现成品,这让整个制作过程就像儿时的寻宝之旅。
