SOUND / PERFORMANCE / ESSAY
2021
sound installation and performance piece, 7 minutes 15 seconds
this work is concerned with the capacity of recorded and synthetic sound to provoke a sense of iunease and uncanny dread. the soundscape seeks to exploit a network of fears and anxieties related to social media, artificial intelligience, data collection, and advanced vocal and facial surveillance and recognition; the fear of the double, perhaps realized by advanced technologies.
this sound piece is best played through headphones, or aloud in a quiet space where one can be alone. listeners are recommended to hear it in complete darkness. as a performance piece, it should be played after the artist introduces themself outloud.
