this is a stereo recording of a generative multichannel sound installation.

server songs is a performative archive and a generative choir of real and synthetic voices. songs from the depths of the servers, songs about life lived on and through the internet.

the installation presents an experiment with performative database access offering glimpses in to the vast amounts of media stored on public servers, with emphasis on curated personal stories from mainstream internet as well as more esoteric timelines and the othernets.

this is a work in progress. it is possible to join the database; through conversation and donation. if you have a story to share, i would love to talk and possibly record you for the archive. a website for the project, where it is possible to get in touch and share stories is now live on https://www.serversongs.me. over time this website will be expanded to give better access to the ever expanding archive.

server songs was commissioned as a work in progress presentation for immersive days 2, curated by christian skovbjerg jensen
