Devon Turnbull (OJAS): HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 2

Devon Turnbull, who produces audio equipment under the moniker OJAS, is a multidisciplinary artist who also works in music, fashion, and graphic design. Known for his brutalist, high-performance, hand-built sound systems, he is a sculptor of speakers and an icon of audiophiles. Turnbull created HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 2, a site-specific immersive sonic environment, for Art of Noise. This listening room-one of a handful of his "shrines to music"-is a functional sculpture that facilitates exceptionally high-fidelity music playback using analog media.

The custom-built system consists of alnico and beryllium compression drivers on brass and steel horns; alnico and paper woofers in plywood enclosures; alnico and beryllium super tweeters; autoformer-based crossovers; lacquered, cotton- covered, copper speaker wire; tube amplifiers; autoformer volume control; tube phono preamplifierscustom-built turntables; phono cartridges; a digital signal processor; a multichannel class D amplifier; and a 1970s Studer A80 reel- to-reel tape player.

HiFi Pursuit Listening Room Dream No. 2 will be activated throughout the run of Art of Noise by operators who are noted music collectors, archivists, and musicians from the Bay Area and beyond.
