Lecture “Modulation as Public Space”

Published: September 13, 2025; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

“We live and love in the analog world. That’s where modulation—interpenetration instead of identity—is the operative procedure. From analog synths and trainwreck DJ sets to memes and bespoke AI, this talk will explore the concept of modulation as a basis for practices that sidestep binary thinking to open up shared space.”
