Born in Lisbon in 1992 but grew up in Alentejo.
In my work I try to conciliate my fascination with technology with the fact that techno-feudal billionaires have the world in the palm of their hands and as far as dystopias go, we’re in a pretty boring one.
Solar punk communes are my dream and to quote one of my favorite writers, Ursula Le Guin “We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable; so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art—the art of words.“
Replace words with sounds and that’s why I do what I do.
I'm a strong believer that art is a paramount necessity of the human mind, it is how experiences and culture are shared, explored, and expanded upon. From telling stories around a fire and drawing on cave walls or making flutes out of hollowed bones, to having controlled voltage making noises on a synthesizer.
No matter who you are or what your artistic experience is, I believe everyone gains from experimenting with art freely and fully, without compromise and good constructive criticism.
