Programme

Transdisciplinary artist Citlali Hernández, together with live coderEloi Isern, present a session based on digital glitch and live-generated visual accompaniment. The glitch, developed by renowned artists such as Ryoji Ikeda and Oval, is based on the use of defects during the digital encoding process, which cause the appearance of failed sounds or images. These clicks and pops, which would normally be considered as errors in the audiovisual signal, are some of the elements that underpin the discourse of this show.

Hernández and Isern’s work also contains features of IDM (Intelligent Dance Music). The label—intelligent dance music— is often used to describe electronic music influenced by techno, but which at the same time explores rhythms and textures of considerable complexity. Hernández and Isern’s aesthetic operates within this domain, which exists between dance and attentive listening.
