Ambient Body

An installation about being perceived while creating

A piece, formed by an installation and a dj set, exploring the anxiety of being perceived while creating, and impostor syndrome. My pulse, facial expressions, and every knob on the mixer were read live and projected onto the wall, while the audio existed only as a stream visitors connected to on their own headphones. It premiered as the pilot for ondaBLAM, a listening event at Café Blam, Tenerife, this past April.
