About The Work
Agreements 11 is a reproduction, in a limited edition of 25, of the double-sided fork used in The Lucky Dragons' Agreements (5 — 10) (2017), an original commission for Ballroom’s spring 2017 Strange Attractor exhibition.
The commissioned piece consisted of two custom cast steel tuning forks, one double-sided and the other four-sided, installed in the Ballroom Marfa courtyard. The tones of the tuning forks were broadcasted throughout the town of Marfa from six separate radio towers on overlapping frequencies to form a continuously evolving sonic sculpture. The tone of each fork corresponded directly to one of the six radio transmissions. The transmissions overlapped geographically, competing with one another to reach the listener who chose to tune in.
