Pieces of Voice

A three-channel call and response message by my Autistic brother:

The processes we go through seem to direct how we understand human behavior and psychology. Engagement with art is a fundamental way we see how human beings want to communicate with themselves, and to the world. This interactivity, to some degree, gives a role to human existence in context to the world’s various physical and psychological structures. This piece dives into the confusing realm of language. Languages construct a common meaning to self-expressions and overall instructional communication. Autism creates a fracture in this system, where there is no universality to the individual's language. The design of my piece involves using digital abstractions choreographed around a soundscape of my Autistic Brother's voice divided into three unique channels. The overall experience should leave one craving connection between the unknown voice, while simultaneously being unable to bridge the language gap.
