"In Ground-truth transcriptions, Sean Kerr has created a new artwork which responds to Paul Cullen’s Reductions (series) on display nearby. Kerr has responded to each of Cullen’s eleven ruler works by translating the drill holes in the rulers into Musical Instrument Digital Interface notes resulting in eleven sonic compositions. The final audio arrangements are unable to be predicted and by embracing the unknown and unexpected, humorous moments may occur in the compositions structure. The artist states that ‘If certain sections sound discordant, they will remain so; if others seem awkward or funny, they will embrace that quality too."
