About bani haykal

bani haykal experiments with text + music. As an artist, composer, and musician, bani considers music (making / processes) as a metaphor for cybernetics and his projects revolve around modes of interfacing and interaction in feedback / feedforward mechanisms. He is a member of b-quartet and Soundpainting ensemble Erik Satay & The Kampong Arkestra. Manifestations of his research culminate into works of various forms encompassing installation, poetry, and performance. His current project is an online public repository of canned laughter + applause based on research which looks into the histories of synthesizers relating to notions of artificiality.

About Tracing Latencies Tracing Latencies is a hybrid group exhibition as part of the Culture | 
Smart City project, held from 3 March to 3 April 2022 at 136 GOETHE LAB. This mixed-media, multi-sensory exhibition radically (re)imagines the conditional ways we relate to our increasingly digitized urban environments and each other. Tracing and unfolding the cloaked systems, illegible structures, and dislocated anxieties that constitute our algorithmic environment, the audience is invited to walk/click through, pause, and embrace these peripheral encounters.
