During the 22nd of February 2022, two years after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we took audio snippets from our everyday lives documenting our homes and surrounding urban environments, our intellectual interests and our musical tastes. We also gathered pictures with our phones. Some of the audio sources were processed, some were not. Here you get slices of our lives from two different cities, New York and Berlin a glimpse of the fragmentation of our times through a broken sonic diary entry.
"Positive*" by Neuro... No Neuro is based upon thin slices of memory, and the disintegration of their existence. The day-to-day, with its 'ups and downs', all while operating/existing above and to the right of the body. When the day ends, and the separated is reunited; how does one collect what is no longer there? Separating consciousness from the corporeal. Memory and thought are being swept out to sea in granules that are imperceptible to those around you. Short term is riddled with inconsistencies. Say "so long" to the granules.
Between present and anticipation, "Pebble steam" highlights several issues caused by human beings. Our uses of elements like earth or water, which we have considered for years to be inexhaustible and eternal.

In parallel, the consequences are already visible with heat waves and extreme climatic phenomena. To reassure us, we are now producing AIs which, like plastic in its day, should make our lives easier.
