Frisson centers the phantom emergence between machine listening and human auditory perception, an ambiguous entanglement belonging to neither, summoned through their intra-active agencies. Through mnemonic perception, auditory hallucination, and algorithmic improvisation, the work cycles through initiation, recognition, reproduction, and stabilization: a continuous arc in which sound and data form feedback loops, each completing the other and generating new cycles of re-emergence. The listener is never passive, their accumulated sonic memory, becomes compositional material that the system reads, responds to, and completes. Frisson is not a mere response to interaction, but the body's anticipation meeting the unexpected, shifting the compositional act from making sound to making the conditions in which sound makes itself.

Apparitions explores phantom sounds through repetition and layering, where light and sound are intertwined to form an entangled field where continuity and closure constantly fold into one another. Through ongoing interactions, the one another. Through ongoing interactions, the installation invites the recognition and reappearance of sonic gestalts and auditory illusions. These phenomena are not framed as passive sensory errors, but as active perceptual processes, moments in which the mind attempts to predict and reconcile incoming stimuli with expectation. Apparitions foregrounds perception as a generative act, where phantoms arise through the continuous interplay between sensation, memory, and anticipation.

Auditoria
Presented at Singapore Art Week 2026
Auditoria is a multidisciplinary exploration into the perception of sound beyond sonic activity, opening up ways of listening to space and environment. Across the exhibition period, Auditoria unfolds through sound installations, workshops, and performances that invite deep listening and attunement, treating sound as an active medium experienced through the body and shaped by space, memory and context.

ArtScience Encounters: Threshold by Louis Quek
In Threshold, sound artist Louis Quek proposes futures where boundaries and margins dissolve, existing instead in a perpetual state of endless transitions. Within a sonic landscape shaped by subtle shifts in tone, subharmonic vibrations and spatial resonance, Quek creates an environment where divisions lose their hold: between centre and periphery, sound and silence, self and surrounding. These fleeting moments are reimagined as potential sites for transformation, uncanny stillness and radical presence. The installation unfolds as a space to drift, notice and recalibrate — inviting us to reflect on how we listen, and how a world in flux might also be a world of possibility.

Phyllaxis is a real-time audiovisual performance inspired by nature’s self-organizing patterns and the principles of chaos theory. Drawing on the spiral geometry of phyllotaxis, it reveals how simple rules generate intricate, living systems. Live sound—ranging from granular textures to resonant pulses—is sculpted in performance and fed into custom generative algorithms that produce responsive large-scale visuals. This creates a bidirectional feedback loop where sound shapes image, and image guides sonic choices. Patterns reminiscent of galaxies, plants, and fractals emerge from algorithmic chaos, reflecting the interplay between order and unpredictability. By positioning technology as an active creative partner, Phyllaxis reframes chaos as a fertile, generative force, offering a meditative exploration of nature’s logic and the collaborative possibilities of human– machine creation.
