Question

in méta-harmonie ii, how does jean tinguely create an interactive experience of motion and sound?
a viewers tap on the surface of the sculpture while moving around the gallery.
b viewers walk around a freestanding sculpture in a mixed-media installation.
c viewers press a foot pedal to turn rotors that hit different instruments.
d viewers alter the air currents in the gallery to move parts of the sculpture.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option based on the knowledge of Jean Tinguely's Méta - Harmonie II. In this artwork, viewers interact with the sculpture by pressing a foot pedal. This action turns rotors, and these rotors hit different instruments, which in turn creates motion and sound.

• Option A: Tapping the surface of the sculpture is not the way viewers interact with Méta - Harmonie II.
• Option B: Just walking around a freestanding sculpture in a mixed - media installation does not describe the interactive mechanism of this specific work.
• Option D: Altering air currents to move parts of the sculpture is not how Méta - Harmonie II functions.

Answer:

C. Viewers press a foot pedal to turn rotors that hit different instruments.
