The exhibition culminates in play: the instruments of observation, the algorithmic systems that dictate what we see and hear, become the manipulated, performative material instead. Musical artist Natalia Kies composed a sound piece using the computer-generated raw audio of lt's Complicated with selected texts from Textfetzen and Wessel's video Systems at Play. The multimedia installation gives the viewer a chance to see and hear the absurdity of the information we consume, and the disorienting, changing structure of language and communication.
