Botborg is very lucky to receive this ‘remix’ by Chicago-based audio-visual artists Vaudeo Signal – Ben Baker-Smith + Evan Kühl. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm40-6G8r7c We received this video on a physical USB stick when we revisited Chicago in 2015. It contained this message: Greetings Botborg, We, Vaudeo Signal, Evan Kühl and Ben Baker-Smith, have been mining similar veins with similar equipment to yours since early 2010.

Botborg video interview for Festival Gamerz (Aix-en-provence, France. October 2013). I think they wanted good/interesting answers, but I was mainly making jokes and eating chocolate, so thanks to the editing team for making me look better than I was. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x169zo8_gamerz-09-botborg_creation.

In the past Botborg has sort to cautiously invite its audience into a mostly pleasurable and collusive audio-visual environment. “To Bypass a Sensory Roadblock” is, however, no such invitation.

Part of Botborg’s work concerns the induction of new mental states by the means of repeated exposure to machine-aided synaesthetic media. “Biofeedback in Extended Simulation” is an abstract exploration into a sound-color world where glitches transform into rhythms and interruptions come to consume our focus. Reactions to this simulation can be unpredictable.
