She is co-founder & co-director of N.K.

Is not time but a fallible dictate of radical material heteronomy, besieging us in an ocean of chaos and verisimilitude? http://hacklander-hatam.com

Title: ob-jest

Ob-jest is an otherness ceaselessly fleeing in a systematic quest of desire — Julia Kristeva.

Supercollider sound synthesis & modular synthesisers are here the tools systematising the quest of a desire all too fleeting… the jettisoned object always seemingly within reach but never graspable.
