Random Access Memory
The performance extends the idea of cassette tapes as devices for storytelling and remembrance. By implementing a translation from musical tones stored on audio casettes into photographic imagery, a poetic audiovisual language is created that merges tone and shape into a unified grammar. By manipulating playback from cassette walkmans mechanically and with analog effects, both the music and its photographic reflections are distorted.
