Click :: RAND 
Click::RAND is an object-based sound installation that, through a media archaeological approach, connects the electro-mechanical relay as an artefact of relay-based calculating machines and publications of large random number sets as historically related media artefacts. Through the relay, Click::RAND is the sonic articulation of The RAND Corporation’s book, A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates. Re-presenting the book’s decimal characters as their binary equivalent is a way of allowing the relay to ‘speak’ with its own voice and for the work to explore the different rhythmic patterns inherent in the data set.
