"Aonic Array" consists of multiple transparent acrylic tubes suspended in the air. Precisely controlled by pneumatic solenoid valves, these tubes produce resonant sounds when air is expelled and echoes within them. Beginning with his 2007 work "Sound.of.bottles," WANG Chung-Kun has been exploring the principle of air vibration to create a variety of sound installations, including "Kong - Qi," "beTube," and "Horns." Through mechanical and digital control, he manipulates air currents to generate sounds that are both familiar and strange, evoking a sense of the future.

WANG Chung-Kun

Chung-Kun WANG works across media art in the development of sound, sculpture, video, kinetic art and installation. He has created various forms of machinery that have consistently maintained an intriguing purity and peculiar sense of beauty. As viewers approach the work these machines operate on their own – making sound, switching on and off, exhaling, spinning or twinkling – each creation with its own variation of rhythm and multiple actions.
