Nessun dorma!

By Camilla Guerci

The sequence of 331 alarms rang on my phone during the year 2022, repeated over and over again every day. This infopoem is about obsessive-compulsive disorder. The alarm clocks are classified according to the sound they emit to form a huge sound poster accompanied by the noise of the alarms produced by the Mp3.

Metaphor used:

A giant sequence of alarms and the sounds that define them.

Intended Meaning:

Make the user experience the main consequences of sleep deprivation: annoyance, anxiety, nervousness - states of mind that the installation attempts to emulate through the large size of the poster, the many times and colours, the alarm clocks transformed into graphic and sound elements.
