Unorthodox, feedback-induced signal processing techniques generate complex sonic streams that are continuously analyzed and mapped to MIDI notes played by the klavierautomat. As discrepancies, miscalculations, and inconsistencies emerge, algorithmic anomalies from a phantom realm whimper for their uncompiled existence. The sound of the piano attempts to emotionalize the unfiltered affectations of the computational void, but instead it reveals the condition of its own mechanismic unplayability.
