back                    a play in computers I approach technology via acoustical pickups. By modifying electronic devices, machines or software I try turning them into actors of not visible 'plays in computers'. I work with machinic noises as mediators for the processes and stories taking place between soft- and hardware. I am considering time and space of CPU and RAM as a fictitious stage. Running software is creating own temporal and spatial dimensions, which I am experimenting with and trying to stage them.
