— MEDIUM:

Arduino Uno, button, laptop, audience.


In this performance, the listener is given the freedom to change what they hear through buttons. While this change can be carried out with the swiftness reminiscent of scrolling through social media posts, the pressure it places on other audience members and the space it restricts are questioned.


At this point, the performer must possess the jamming ability to adapt to all these ongoing changes or can they, too, simply act the part?

It is about how the authorities granted to provide free space can, in turn, become a form of restricting freedom for others.
