Zimoun is a self-taught Swiss artist
who specializes in “architecturally-minded landscapes of sound.”
Many of his works involve taking a sound and extrapolating it on an
epic scale by installing many identical versions of the same simple machine. He often uses hundreds of simple DC motors to drive the machines, which repeatedly produce sounds using everyday objects such as cotton balls, wire, and cardboard. 

I chose Zimoun because I really enjoy how he takes very simple materials to create such complex and almost overwhelming installations. Before seeing videos of his work, I don’t think I had encountered this kind of sound art. The production of the sound is entirely mechanical and created by the objects themselves. It gives his pieces a really interesting physical presence that is evident even from seeing it in video form.
