The Daniil Kharms
Friends and I made an album!
Here it is on all of the streaming platforms.
There's also a really great music video by Alex Fatta
Out in the world:
- До и после Гоголя – Светлана Ким беседует с Григорием Садетским
- THE DANIIL KHARMS "Мы до сих пор говорим на одном языке с Хармсом"
- The Good People music video at the "Sommets du cinéma d'animation"
WFMU Radio Row
My own WFMU Radio Row 1-hour show!!
The theme I chose was "Tacky left-field French pop and indiscriminately heavy riffs".
Chops
by Tristan L'Abbé and Greg Technology
Chops was an iOS app that transformed vocal sounds into drum sounds, and let you layer multiple tracks making it much more intuitive and fun to jot down ideas or just jam it out while you’re away from the keyboard.
Velophone
by Greg Technology and Luc Mikelsons
Using motion sensors and radio signals, Velophone algorithmically generates musical scores based on the rider's movements.
Its original compositions are adapted and modulated for multiple bicycles when many Velophones ride together.
It uses Arduinos, music, accelerometers, zip ties and makes you feel like you're riding the music, for all of the intense feeling of dread that this sentence evokes in you.
Anticipation
Final project, School for Poetic Computation Spring 2019
Anticipation is a comedic interactive piece exploring unforeseen uses of the human voice as a musical instrument. As visitors approach the piece, set in a dystopian karaoke environment of badly hung glittery decoration, the artist / MC invites them to sing, whistle or make any sound into a microphone. Many elements seem off: the microphone is disconnected, while a crudely attached webcam whose lens is covered with tape appears to intermittently glow blue. What is going on?
The sounds provided by the visitors are transformed into small notes which are embedded into various MIDI jazz song standards, following the musical parts of the piano, bass or drums. The unintended and distorted results tend to approach both limits of the best/worse spectrum of appreciation — the resulting music is both unbearably wrong and unmusical, while being satisfying in its silliness and unnecessary complexity.
Materials
Cardioid microphone, Logitech webcam, Apple computer, Python, C++, and JavaScript software.

These Eyes Do Exist
by Lia Coleman, Emily Saltz / Sound Design: Kakia Gkoudina; Motion Design: Danqi Qian; Creative Tech Consultant: Greg Technology / Featured works: Lia Coleman, Naoko Hara, Sam Griffith, Rita Duan
Exhibited in the fall 2021 Tracked and Traced exhibition at Science Gallery Detroit / Michigan State University.
These Eyes Do Exist is an installation exploring four stages of the AI art creation process: ‘dataset creation’, ‘model code’, ‘training resources’, and ‘publishing’. By highlighting the distinct labor and tools at each stage, this piece shows the ways that artificial intelligence is grounded in interdependent human processes — processes rarely credited.

Reverse Parking
Reverse Parking is an art collective.
I made an AI music video. The caption read:
It feels like I was working on this 6 months ago at most, but it’s actually been one whole year. Time truly is unknowable. Anyway, those prehistoric AI times feel foreign and quaint — computers were stupid toddlers back then, barely able to keep their heads up and spouting a few syllables at best. It was a gentle and rewarding experience to illustrate this beautiful song. In the end, we’re all cold. X
