16 Shots for Arnold" is a sound installation comprised of 16 glasses filled with chacaca and 16 liquor bottles. Using pulleys, the liquor bottles are continuously moved up and down by a windshield wiper motor, creating a resonating sound against the glasses filled with chacaca. The audience is invited to indulge in the liquor glasses, causing the quantity of liquid in the glasses to decrease as the guests become increasingly intoxicated. as the audience gets drunker and the level of the shot glasses is lowered, the composition changes from a synchronized clinking to a wild atonal soundscape which is finally synchronized again when the glasses are completely emptied.
