My work explores the relationship between technologies and listening practices, through the manipulation of resonant bodies and sound spatialization. I use listening and sound phenomena as a channel to explore notions of space and to play with the idea of sound and listening as “presence”. My work, usually through formal strategies, plays with concepts of organicity, labor, craft, and precariousness.

RED is a piece that investigates interactions with and between unstable acoustic feedback systems. Sculpturally the work is based on hand-weaved audio-cable nets that are connected to contact microphones and speakers to produce acoustic feedback between each other. Often taking different iterations (specific to its space and context and thus all unique), the piece consists on the creation of an acoustic feedback environment by setting up nets and placing them in relation to the architectural features of the space. 

For this iteration, the plan is to weave a sound producing speaker-wire net containing double basses that will function as a complex feedback organism. Being physically hung from the ceiling, it will attract the audience’s attention as a living and autonomous object, around which there will be no neutral point of listening. This kind of exploration with sonic feedback and resonant objects invites audiences into the space, where they both affect and are affected by the sound phenomena. Sound is modulated by “presence” and occupies the space as acoustic architecture
