Stretch the Grid Over My Skin

Live-produced electronic music for VR and IRL performance using synths, samples, and spoken word to evoke the sensuous connection between body and technology.

Synopsis

A live performance of spoken word and electronic music for virtual reality and IRL. Using live synths and samples I create a textured realm for invoking the interanimation of technology and the body. I read from my own poetry about creating virtual avatars binding it to text from a 15th century witch hunting manual. These twinned experiments in languaging embodiment filter through layers of noise and deconstructed club beats.
