Marc Vilanova approaches listening as an embodied practice. Rather than composing with sound, his work examines how frequencies at the edges of perception shape our cognitive and sensory systems. In Grounded Frictions, Vilanova extends this inquiry through three site-specific sculptural installations that explore the interplay of sensing, environment, and technology.

The works emerge from an exploration of signals deep within the Earth. Vilanova focuses on infrasounds: vibrations between 0.1 and 20 Hz that fall below the threshold of human hearing but are fundamental for planetary and biological processes. Using geophones, scientific instruments that detect these low frequencies in the earth, he recorded underground tremors near active gas wells in Western Pennsylvania, where extraction processes fracture bedrock and destabilize geological formations. In Grounded Frictions these low-frequency signals materialize through movement, light, and mechanical interaction.

In a darkened gallery, an array of fiber optic strings stretches from floor to ceiling, each anchored to a speaker. Unable to produce audible tones, the threads tighten, oscillate, and quiver in response to the underground recordings. Light flickers and dims as it traces a choreography of tension and release. We are invited to walk around or sit within the space to experience vibrational forces across elusive temporal and perceptual scales.

Attuning to these subterranean soundscapes fosters environmental awareness. Infrasounds signal seismic shifts and shape the behavior of organisms. Yet, industrial-induced vibrations disrupt Earth’s acoustic ecology, unsettling the environments that nonhuman animals, plants, and machinic systems sense and rely on.

In the adjoining room, two sculptures trace these recordings through materials shaped by Pittsburgh’s industrial past. A suspended array of undulating, textured glass tubes functions as a device for hearing these vibrations. Nearby, a curved, rolled steel structure forms a listening chamber. Agitated fibers brush against its worn metal surface in shifting patterns. A trembling soundscape builds, and its echoes stretch into the surrounding space.

Rather than resolving the limits of perception, Grounded Frictions unsettles them. These earthly vibrations may be felt before they become intelligible. Here, listening is not confined to the auditory but becomes a process of planetary attunement—an encounter with infrasounds as kinetic force, luminous translations, and traces in matter. Vilanova foregrounds the ways technologies, both in art and science, expand and mediate our perception into domains out of reach. Through bodily experience, the exhibition invites reflection on the generative potential where disciplines, knowledge systems, and modes of sensing converge. Within these frictions, a more-than-human sensorium takes form.

Phonos. 2020-2022
Sculptural Sound Installation

	
					3m x 5m x 3m. 208 channel sound, 208 speaker
cones, 104 ampli ers, 26 audio interfaces, audio
cables, steel, custom software.

				
Infrasounds drift beneath the threshold of human hearing. Despite remaining largely unresearched and unregulated, these low-frequency vibrations shape ecosystems and impact the well-being of humans and more-than-humans.


Phonos is a sculptural installation of 208 recycled speakers – each one restored, stripped of its cone, and reprogrammed to receive a unique infrasound. Too small to voice these signals into the air, the speakers reveal their mechanical effort: coils vibrate, membranes ripple in tension and metallic components creak. An algorithm modelled on collective animal behaviour sequences their movements into an ever-changing polyrhythm of tremors and buzzes.


Despite its monumental scale, Phonos invites closeness. The sculpture becomes a living organism that breathes and pulsates, creating an intimate, shared experience to attune to imperceptible acoustic ecologies. Through embodied listening, Phonos offers a space to relate to and care for the sonic worlds that hold us.

	Limen. 2019Sound/Light Installation


10m x 0,6m x 2m. 4 channel sound, 128 LED fluorescent lamps, dmx relays, wood, steel, polymethyl methacrylate, custom software.
Limen aims to unveil the invisible sounds of our everyday
life. The piece works around the uorescent lamp, one of
the most commune sources of light which also produces
many tones above 20kHz. Using a special microphone
we captured those ultrasounds and translated them into
audible frequencies.

					
The composition uses only those invisible sounds
produced by the lamps. This sonic material triggers a
choreography of light composed by 128 uorescents
which are displayed in the shape of their ultrasonic
waveform. The sculpture is surrounded by a yellow lter,
a color known by its ability to increase our concentration
and perceptional capacity, enhancing other organs than
the ear on sensing those frequencies.

					
Limen means threshold, the place in between, the
boundary of perception, a term that gives the linealform to the structure and divides the space in two. The
sculpture acts as a threshold between our perception
limits, between the visible and the invisible, the hearable
and the inaudible, between what we can sense and what
goes beyond.

	Cascade. 2023


					Sculptural Sound Installation

				
Variable dimensions (max: 10m x 6m x 0,3m). 128
channel sound, 128 speaker cones, 128 light-
diffusing optic fiber, 128 lasers, 64 amplifiers, 16
audio interfaces, 3D printed modules, 2 custom
PWM-DMX boards, wood, custom software.

				
Waterfalls emit infrasonic frequencies vital for the navigation of certain birds, which use them as a compass during their migrations. Recently, noise pollution from industrialization has threatened this journey. Cascade attempts to reproduce the infrasonic recordings of various waterfalls using small speakers incapable of emitting such low frequencies. However, their vibrations activate an optical fiber through which the sound "falls," creating a curtain of light that visualizes the sound waves, offering an alternative form of listening. This challenges human auditory and perceptual capabilities, decentering our position as “the measure of all things." Such vibration can be seen, felt, and touched with the skin, providing a multisensory experience that emphasizes interspecies connections through "feeling with" others and the body. The fibers of Cascade illuminate the viewer's position, reminding us of the critical importance of preserving the often unseen elements of nature.

	Coreto. 2021
Audiovisual Installation &#124; Public Space


					10m x 10m x 5m. Recycled plastic, digital LED, steel,
plexiglass, neon lights, bulbs, dmx motor, ventilators,
hazer machine, custom software.

				
Coreto is a ephemeral installation created in collaboration with Penique Productions.

A tailor-made balloon expands filling the whole pavilion and becoming part of its own architecture. The inflatable acts as a boundary, framing a new space where the audience is welcome to enter and interact with the building completely transformed by a new texture.&#38;nbsp;

Inside, a light-colored installation is triggered by the sound. The sonic composition is based on several recordings from the city and a live processed microphone that takes the sound from the outside in real-time. This type of constructions were commonly used to stage musicians that were playing for the city. With Coreto we aim to create a listening experience where the city plays for the building, and the audience is invited to slow down, listen and experience the urban soundscape in a completely different way.

	Spike. 2019
Sond/Light Installation4m x 4m x 3m. 8 channel sound, 14.200 ribbon cables, 210 LEDs, wood, braided steel cable, dmx controllers, custom software.
Spike is a large sculptural sound installation based on recordings of electromagnetic fields. The artists captured the invisible electromagnetic fields that he was encountering during a regular day from all kinds of common electronic devices. The frequencies were captured using a magnetic antenna and a pickup coil. 


A suspended wooden structure hangs 14.200 ribbon cables used in old computers. More than 300 of those cables have a little LED at the end that synchronizes with the sound material. The sculpture performs the recordings of invisible electromagnetisms that surround us while creating a sort of shield experience once you are inside.&#38;nbsp;

	Aresta. 2018
Sound/Light Installation/Performance
7m x 4,5m x 3m. 12 channel sound, saxophones,
steel, wood, speaker cones, LEDs, dmx controllers,
custom software, custom electronics, dimmers
Aresta is a sculptural sound installation, turning an
ensemble of saxophones into autonomous entities. The
music is generated by a computer using AI, played through
the instruments and synchronized with LEDs placed inside
their bodies. The performer interacts with the installation,
questioning the need for a human body on stage and the
potential obsolescence of its role.

					
Aresta can be experienced both as an installation and a
performance.

Saxophone Miniatures is a series of short duration video pieces that explore the relation
between sound and image.
Working with light inside and outside the instrument as well as micro
cameras placed inside or outside
the tube, Vilanova creates a direct
and organic relation between light-sound through the movement
of the keys of the saxophone.

					
This video pieces were created (chronologically) in Helsinki, Barcelona and Antwerp and
won the Jury Prize at the World
Saxophone Congress Strasbourg’15 and ACTIVA - International Sound-Video Art.
