Details
The audio piece titled "Toggle" begins with the distinct sound of a switch being flicked on, creating a clear, sharp click that resonates in the quiet. A moment later, there is the additional sound of a button being pressed, its softer click contrasting with the initial switch. The audio then transitions into the heavy, mechanical sound of a knife switch being thrown. The clunk of the switch is heavy and satisfying, bringing to mind images of old movies where such switches were thrown to start up large, complex machinery. Following the knife switch, the sound of a button being clicked on and off is played, each click slightly different in pitch and tone, bringing a depth and variety to the overall sound. Interspersed throughout the audio piece are the soft sounds of a light being switched on and off. Each flick of the light switch is accompanied by a gentle hum, evoking a sense of a quiet room being illuminated and then plunged into darkness over and over again.
