- A print glitch on a Sónar Istanbul pass becomes input for a TouchDesigner system — a feedback loop of machine perception.
Sonar Ticket — with itsu.
A year after preparing for Sónar Istanbul, a festival pass failed in print and became something unexpected: a distorted pattern that looked almost identical to the visuals from our live set. After the show we scanned the ticket and, in TouchDesigner, built a generative system in which the glitch is the input — analysed and reinterpreted through the system's own structure.
A small printing error turned into a feedback loop of machine perception: how systems learn from noise and make new form out of imperfection.
