Sound, happening

Peter Berényi created for Mirka’s exposition a sound track consisted of favourite party-songs regularly interrupted by the noise of a fridge. Intervals of shrill, overexposed sound of the fridge electromotor with characteristic clicks at the beginning and end of each cycle copied a running-idle cycle of the fridge motor. Each 40 minutes the visitors of the event were exposed to 20 minutes of that awkward sound. It irritated the visitors who were thus looking forward to its end so that they could carry on with their amusement.

Peter Barényi, as a regular visitor to the fridge expositions by Mira Gáberová, reacted to the fact that he knows the atmosphere of the exposition very well and, further, that these exhibitions became such an event where a narrow group of people often meets together – the people who know each other and thirst for some “bang-up” friday party.
