Alberto Novello a.k.a. JesterN’s practice uses found or decontextualized analogue devices to investigate the connections between light and sound in the form of contemplative installations and performances. He repurposes and modifies tools from our analogue past: oscilloscopes, early game consoles, analogue video mixers, and lasers. He is attracted to their intrinsic limitations and strong ‘personalities’: fluid beam movement, vivid colors, infinite resolution, absence of frame rate, and line aesthetics. By using these forgotten devices, he exposes the public to the aesthetic differences between the ubiquitous digital projections and the natural vibrance of analogue beams, engaging them to reflect on the sociopolitical impact of technology in a retrospective on technologisation: what ‘old’ means, and what value the ‘new’ really adds.

His works have been presented at Centre Pompidou in Paris, Museo Reina Sofia Madrid, Amsterdam Dance Event, Venice Biennale, New York Computer Music Festival, Bozar Bruxelles, BOA Biennale Porto, Rewire Festival Den Haag, Glasgow Contemporary Art Center, Dom Moskow, Seoul International Music Festival, Rome University of Fine Arts, to mention a few. He has released records for Staalplat, Bowindo, Elli Records, Dobialabel, Setoladimaiale, Ante-Rasa and Creative Sources.

Everything is oooWaahhh

A positive change in consciousness has the power to topple barriers almost as easy as a negative change creates them; this simple understanding has fueled my musical drive since the beginning with me using the microphone. Such a power without a proper conduit can be disastrous so I found myself volunteering my music and time to Art-Start (art-start.org) which was easily the most rewarding experience of my life. How lucky I was at so early in my career to be a part of a movement that can go from performing at the national arts club to an american history class at NYU so seamlessly. The program gave me a sense of direction, understanding and a hope for change; real change in myself and my environment. Brooklyn native the most versatile emcee you'll ever meet though the pleasure is always mine...call me Krhazey.
