I'm working with Music For Your Inbox this month to showcase an oscilloscope improvisation. Alias 3 picks apart and examines the notion of computers as impartial truth telling machines. I intentionally programmed outside the computer’s ability, so that much of what we end up seeing and hearing isn’t what I performed, but an aliased incomplete version of it. Through my work, I am rejecting the idea that computers are objective and neutral. Rather they are tools shaped by us, for better or for worse, with a specific goal in mind.
This months visual Artists is Emily Zeller, who is interested in the intersection between art and technology, mixing the old and the new, and joining high-and low-tech. For her mail art, she is creating a limited edition of 130 pen-plot drawings. For each drawing, a parameter is slightly changed so that the design shifts slightly, creating a collection of completely original prints that gradually drifts away from her initial design. Through the pairing, we see different translations from computer code to machine and the shifting, fuzzy, in-between spaces those translations reveal.
