Generational [Dis]connect LIVE at Ki Smith Gallery

In a world of endless distraction, division, and isolation, Generational [Dis]connect invites the listener to seek respite in an immersive, and at times cacophonous collection of the sounds of computing and internet past, harkening back to when one literally had to hang up the phone in order to gain access. The duo features purely digital and acoustic elements, and seeks to explore the temperamental balance of the organic and inorganic in modern society as well as within the conception of self. The set resides conflictingly between nostalgia for ancient digital footprints and our fleeting desire to emerge from the noise unscathed.
