In the early 1970s Dick Raaijmakers (1930–2013) developed three separate loudspeaker installations, Ideophone I, II and III. Ideophones are defined as words that evoke certain sensations, e.g., smell, colour, shape, sound, action, or movement. Raaijmakers’ Ideophones each possess a unique voice, but are self-destructive; the speakers activate themselves through feedback loops in order to ‘speak’.
