Statement:
a complex mesh of custom software and hardware makes manifest underlying systematics in a highly immersive, intense performance; the digital made physical, audible, and visible through geological computing and complex code systems. recoding data processing algorithms on the fly, ap transform the performance space into an open laboratory. heavily improvised, playing with the collapse of massed, barely functional salvaged equipment and software systems made manifest in sound/noise and image, ap present a complex, process-driven constructivist performance; the symphonic rise of the attempt to piece together fugal systematics is played out against the noise of collapse and machine crash at the deserted border of control.
