SHAPE+: Farzané

"The mixtape is a selection of pieces that have influenced my work, aside from academic and more known pieces in the history of electronic music. I curated this mixtape with a focus on pieces that employ texture and organic gestural dynamics as primary compositional elements, seeking works where the traditional boundaries between patterns and textures dissolve into more fluid, experiential sonic landscapes." Farzané (Farzaneh Nouri), an Iranian sound artist, creative coder, and researcher based in the Netherlands, works at the intersection of experimental music and computer science. Her ongoing practice-based research focuses on embodied knowledge in human-computer free improvisation. Embracing AI’s fundamental otherness while establishing relational connections, her practice aims at creating conditions of genuine encounter and collaborative destabilization between the artist and the machine.
