This audiovisual performance transforms video feedback into both sight and sound through an analog-digital feedback loop. Using a vintage camcorder aimed at a CRT television, the artist generates evolving feedback patterns. The video signal is simultaneously diverted to audio inputs—visual information literally becomes sound through signal misappropriation.
Real-time manipulation of the TV's contrast and brightness controls shapes the feedback's behavior, causing it to pulse, sharpen, and morph organically. These experimental sessions are sampled and cut into clips that function as audiovisual instruments, triggered via MIDI through Ableton Live and composited in real-time with Resolume Arena.
Never Not Nothing explores how feedback emerges from amplifying insignificant noise—tiny unpredictable seeds that compound through iterative self-reflection. Optical errors mutate the signal, transforming microscopic imperfections into cascading phenomena. The piece illustrates emergence and recursion, where nothing truly empty exists; even the smallest fluctuation, when fed back upon itself, blooms into rich media.
