Amp Spin Amp Spin is a kinetic sculpture and an instrument.

Amp Spin uses a turning guitar amplifier and a live or prerecorded sound source.

Amp Spin is able to move at varying speeds and in both directions. This machine is designed to run independently, controlled by a microprocessor; and it is designed to be manually operated with a foot pedal. As Amp Spin passes by a static shotgun microphone, the microphone picks up and transmits to a sound system that in turn amplifies the sound. How this sound is then heard depends on a range of factors including amplifier movement and placement, sound source amplitude, room or space resonance, etc.
