about

“From Settlement to Nomadism” (2015-2016) was commissioned by Paris-based non profit La Plage as a solo presentation for Material Art Fair in Mexico City.

Three recurring unnamed nonhuman entities, materialised as abstract 3D renders, loom across the work, comprised of a script, three sound compositions, and a single-channel video. Focusing on strategies of escapism and autonomy by means of time stretching, deceleration, and reversal, “From Settlement to Nomadism” is a first draft for a longer research scenario.

The auditive pieces simulate orchestral drone music, while originating from extreme digital stretching of ringtones from a Samsung consumer mobile and long-term labor limae. Recorded on tape as a whole, resampled, and printed on transparent dubplates, these musical elements are “temporal reprocessors” inaccurately translating, partially transposing nonhuman time depths.

The work embraces the power of daydream and the potential of a non-rational spillover of collective thought—both being incubation seeds either for future revolutions or temporary palliatives thereof. At a slower pace, synchronicity of life and chaos becomes a hope for bewitched years to come.
