Material Hunting
Work begins in scrap yards, storage rooms, and forgotten tech piles. Components are selected for shape, memory, and sonic potential.
Artist Snapshot
Eric Lord is an installation artist working across sound sculpture, light systems, and participatory environments. His practice often starts with reclaimed objects and ends with living spaces that react to movement, curiosity, and collective presence.
The core thread through his installations is transformation: old machines become instruments, familiar spaces become dream terrain, and passive viewers become active co-creators.
Timeline
- Early phase: Experimental builds from found electronics and improvised audio circuits.
- Public activation: Larger works invite crowds to shape sound and color in real time.
- Hybrid ecosystems: Installations such as GroveOS merge organic forms and digital logic.
- Current direction: Multi-sensory story worlds that blend sculpture, theatricality, and interaction.
Influences
- Industrial salvage aesthetics and repair culture.
- Experimental music, spatial acoustics, and sound dramaturgy.
- Immersive theatre, puppetry, and playful public art.
- Science fiction landscapes and speculative architecture.
Process Deck
Behavior Design
Sensors, light controllers, and sound engines are tuned so that visitors can intuitively trigger complex responses through simple movement.
Spatial Choreography
Final layouts are staged like immersive scenes, balancing pathways, surprise reveals, and moments of collective participation.
