Temple of Faitiche is a concrete cube & sound carrier (size: 31x31x31cm, weight: 70kg), containing WAV files of Faitiche's 5th anniversary compilation (faitiche08-13). The cube is a not portable sound carrier, it is in fact monumentally bound to location. The material manifestation of the audio files is strictly functional, containing neither additional information nor decoration. Only the front side is adorned with a protruding USB port that allows access to the data within. Data and carrier are connected permanently – readable and copyable, but not yet deletable. Information and medium are reconciled. The data contained herein is freely accessible to all. The only requirements are physical presence at the cube’s location and a computer with a USB port (USB 1 & 2 compatible) that can be inserted into the cube. Temple of Faitiche has been been set up at a series of public spaces.
