The project for Geneva proposed a Time Piece which would be perceived in a border along the Lake Geneva shore line. The drawing shows a sound source group placed at a point equidistant from the lake shores. The group is made up of twelve separate audio channels, providing the means of matching the varied aural environments by creating a sound / shape which has different dimensions and timbre in each of twelve vectors.
