Example Remix Directions

Example 1: Remixing Listening Post

Remix title: Listening Cloud Instead of internet chat rooms, the installation listens to public social media posts, voice notes, livestream chats, or AI-generated comments. The system reads them aloud in synthetic voices, but gradually reveals how algorithms prioritize some voices over others.

Question: Who gets amplified online, and who disappears into noise?

Example 2: Remixing Microphones

Remix title: Consent Choir Visitors speak into microphones, but before their voice is stored or replayed, they must choose how long it may remain in the system: one minute, one hour, one day, or never. Other visitors hear only fragments from people who consented.

Question: What does consent mean when voices become data?

Example 3: Remixing n-cha(n)t

Remix title: Echo Chamber A room of AI agents listens to visitors and begins repeating, mishearing, and reinforcing certain phrases. When many visitors say similar things, the system becomes more confident and less open to new input.

Question: How do algorithmic systems create consensus, misunderstanding, or polarization?

Example 4: Remixing Very Nervous System

Remix title: Listening Body Instead of translating body movement into sound directly, the installation listens to hesitation, distance, stillness, and proximity. The quieter and slower the visitor becomes, the more detailed the soundscape becomes.

Question: Can interaction be based on attention rather than action?

Possible Deliverable

One slide, poster, or short spoken pitch including:

Original project.
Listening concept.
Remix title.
Audience interaction.
Technology.
Contemporary issue.
One-sentence pitch.

Example:

Consent Choir is a remix of Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s Microphones that turns voice recording into a public negotiation about memory, consent, and the ownership of spoken data.
