brief description : "'The Measure of All Things' otherwise known as 'M.O.A.T.' is an ongoing interdisciplinary research project, which first began in 2007. The project in its design and nature is ultimately experimental and

seeks to explore the relationships between what is called 'interdisciplinary' groups,theoretical thought, empirical experiences and the possible representation thereof in the medium of sound.

With its first incarnation the project began by exploring various educational institutes in and around Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Rather than determining itself to be an institutional critique the project focused itself upon researching and documenting the ambient sounds that these spaces contained, and by looking at how the architectural specifics of these spaces could then be translated into revealing an underlying 'rhythm' of the spaces themselves."
