‘Maps of horizontal global space can’t account for all overlapping layers that create a thickened vertical jurisdictional complexity, or for how we already use them to design and govern our worlds. Instead of lamenting all the exceptions to the norm, hoping that they will get back in the box where they belong, perhaps it is time to map a new normal.’

Dial Tone Operator byAura Satz looks back to the early days of telephony, when calls were dialled by switchboard operators. This human intervention was later replaced by the automatic dial tone. Here, the dial tone is composed into experimental drone music, evoking the underlying hum of the city and tuning in and out of human speech.
I-ya I against I Flesh of my flesh And mind of my mind Two of a kind but one won’t survive My images reflect in the enemies eye And his images reflect in mine the same time
Cuchillos - Charly García [1996]
