    An exploration of mourning and loss: Asa Horvitz & Carmen Quill discuss their new album GHOST

    Musicians Asa Horvitz and Carmen Quill discuss GHOST, a multi-format piece of art that began its life as a touring multidisciplinary performance and later took form as a website with video and music components commissioned by Het HEM (NL) before finally taking form as an album with additional contributions from Ariadne Randall, Bryan West, and Wayne Horvitz. The lyrics for the work were generated by a custom Natural Language Processing AI system (designed by Seraphina Goldfarb-Tarrant and Alejandro Calcaño). Part experimental opera, part neo-Medieval reverie, and part avant-pop song cycle, it is now presented as a streamlined album of standout recordings made throughout the project’s long genesis.

    Game Transfer Phenomena & The Tetris Effect: A Conversation With the Executor of the Estate of Joshua Caleb Weibley & Composer Jordan Dykstra

    A conversation with the executor of the estate of Joshua Caleb Weibley and composer Jordan Dykstra about their installation Projection 010: Game Transfer Phenomena, now up at NYC's Chart Gallery through February 15, which consists of 7 crates made to hold objects derived from Tetris’s 7 Tetromino shapes. The installation, curated by Alex Feim, takes its name from repetitive gameplay’s influence on spatial reasoning and the visual/auditory hallucinations it induces. These perceptual occurrences were first observed following the wider release of Tetris during the late 1980s and are also called “The Tetris Effect.”  Hosted on Acast.

    Author Julia Hannafin

    Julia Hannafin is a writer and artist from a two-mom family in Berkeley, California. Their first novel, Cascade, was published with Great Place Books in April 2024, an independent press founded by Alex Higley, Emily Adrian, and Monika Woods. Cascade is a propulsive novel set on the Farallons—a rugged set of islands off the coast of San Francisco—about addiction, sex, gender, loss, and whether any of us can escape our biological inheritance. After her mother’s overdose, Lydia goes to work for her ex-boyfriend’s father, tagging and monitoring great white sharks. As rare and unforeseen interactions between species threaten her team’s research, so does Lydia’s growing infatuation with her boss.  In this interview, Interlocutor Fiction Contributing Editor Nirica Srinivasan talks with Hannafin in detail about Cascade and its development.
