The audio essay Sonic Fictioning: Podcasting as a Lure for Feeling introduces the concept of sonic fictioning through Schizopodcast – a sonic artwork presented as a web application and later published on Research Catalogue: https://www.researchcatalogue.net/view/1894089/2463127. Schizopodcast: A Podcast is a Podcast is a Podcast builds on Deleuze-Guattari’s ontology of immanence, viewing nature as an autopoietic force. It frames sonic fictioning not merely as an abstraction but as a resonant dispositif, shaped by its physical, cultural, and political contexts. Rather than opposing lived experience in late capitalism, sonic fictioning enacts a speculative flight, a ‘lure for feeling’ in the Whiteheadian sense. Used as a verb, fictioning is a practice of fabulation that connects to the real through sound, challenging the opposition between fiction and reality, producing or altering worlds. Schizopodcast asks how one might live, and how sonic fictions affirm this question. It examines the philosophical and practical implications of sonic thinking in reflecting on perception, understanding, and loopholes. The audio essay continues this exploration of sonic fictioning’s aesthetic and epistemological aspects as a lure-for-feeling. Though speculation may not reveal truths, it highlights fiction’s aesthetic value and its conveyance of corporeal knowledge.

This exposition serves as an archive for the project "Meetings with Remarkable and Unremarkable Trees", where Annette Arlander spends time with specific trees and poses for camera together with them. The exposition is under construction

This exposition or archive is a work in progress, under construction, for gathering material of encounters with junipers.

This research investigates the active role of light as a core compositional element in contemporary music performance by exploring the integration of light, sound, and movement in real-time environments. Traditionally, light has been treated as a secondary aspect of performance, primarily serving as a means of illumination or visual enhancement. However, this study examines how light can function beyond this conventional role, actively shaping musical structure and influencing perception. Through the analysis of live performances and hands-on experimentation with analogue oscillators, photoresistors, and DMX systems, this research explores how these elements function as both medium and material within a piece. My compositions, alongside works by composers such as Viola Yip and Hugo Morales Murguía, serve as case studies, illustrating light’s transformation in performance from a passive visual aid to a structural force. These works highlight how light, when treated as a compositional element, reconfigures performer agency and audience perception. By challenging conventional notions of light in music, this research contributes to ongoing discussions on multimedia composition and performance aesthetics. It proposes an alternative perspective in which light is not merely an accessory to sound but an integral component of musical structure, expanding the possibilities for interdisciplinary performance practice.

This visual essay explores images generated through AI-based expansion of a simple photographic composition. Without commands or prompts, the system infers human gestures, shadows, and presences — inventing what was never there. The project questions authorship, visibility, and the power of symbolic residue when language no longer mediates creation. It is not about representation — it is about refusal, inference, and the unsettling persistence of images beyond intention.

In a world saturated with sonic and social noise, this project positions listening as a deliberate, ethical, and relational practice. Through a series of interdisciplinary performances and compositions, I investigate how improvisation and spatial acoustics can cultivate human connection, challenge perceptual norms, and activate space as a responsive collaborator. Drawing on theories from acoustic ecology, performance studies, and architecture, particularly the work of Beatriz Colomina, Paulina Oliveros, Blesser and Salter, I explore how environments shape musical communication and identity. Improvisation functions not only as a musical technique, but also as a method of social engagement and shared authorship. This research embraces openness, embodiment, and collective presence as central to how music is created, perceived, and lived.
