Black Box (2024)
Black Box is an iterative project featuring custom designed modular synthesizer systems that play video games. The game component responds dynamically to the instrument’s audio output, creating a self-regulating and responsive network. The sonic character of the synthesizer collapses biological and digital expression, confusing body, voice, and media, while the game’s 2D aesthetics and side-scrolling mechanics emphasize routine, monotony, and interchangeability in cybernetic relationships and technologically mediated labor practices.
Black Box was most recently exhibited at Ars Electronica in Linz, Austria September 4-8, 2024
