Feedback

In the fall of 2023, I was lucky enough to participate in a digital art festival in Sofia. As part of this event, I prepared a small experimental set using my favorite modular synthesizers and TouchDesigner. The basis of the performance was my favorite complex feedback loop, slightly more controlled than in my usual experiments, but still very unstable and dangerous. It was a serious challenge for me to perform this live. Unfortunately, there is no quality recording, but I collected some fragments to convey the atmosphere that was present in the hall. ...

I love working with a modular synthesizer, where devices can be used in completely unexpected and unconventional ways. I especially enjoy creating complex feedback loops, where the signal is not generated by an oscillator, but arises solely from noise and interference within the circuit, amplifying itself. Then you interact with this material, trying to guide it in the right direction. You turn the knobs, listen to what comes out, and try to organize the system; sometimes everything gets out of control, but then you find a point of balance, and then everything falls apart into noise again. I love it! ...
