Sound Drawing, Sound Sculpture, 1978, Electronic Pencils II, 1976

 
   

Dragan Ilic

"Electronic Pencils II was performed in 1976 in Sydney together with Rod Head: Thousands of pencils are thrown against walls, glass and other surfaces. In "Sound Drawing" a series of pencil lines on paper are the source of the sound and in "Sound Sculpture" Ilic plays one of his pencil-sulptures.
The recording of the pencil-sculptures is an integral part of the work intended to contradict the fugitivity of the action. The recordings also form the basis of new recorded versions of the pieces.

"Sound Drawing" was published in the MAG Magazine.
