Inside Cycles: Live explores how perception is organised and destabilised within densely digitalised environments, rendering emergent subjectivities between interacting technical, spatial, and environmental processes.
Developed through a three-month multidisciplinary collaboration with visual artists and designers, the work is structured around an audio-reactive 3D light sculpture activated through projection mapping. Sound and image are treated as interdependent mediums in non-hierarchical relation, producing a continuously reconfigured spatial field in which perception is modulated without resolution or final signification.
Rather than centring the human as a stable observer, the performance foregrounds a more-than-human sensitivity in which bodily orientation arises through ongoing negotiation with saturated sensory conditions. Clarity is not presented as resolution or withdrawal, but as a temporary alignment within an environment characterised by excess signal, repetition, and flux.
The work premiered in June 2024 at a sold-out performance at Rich Mix, London. Inside Cycles has been featured by CLASH, BBC 6 Music, and Bandcamp Daily.
