Somerset House Studios

Studios artist Marija Bozinovska Jones and musician and artist J.G. Biberkopf introduce a collaborative new work entitled Fascia 171208180222\. The live audio-visual performance positions the contemporary self entangled in surveillance economies with data as an elusive currency. The interview was recorded at this year's Sonic Acts Academy in Amsterdam where the work was premiered. Marija Bozinovska Jones’ work revolves around formation of identity within augmented technocapitalism. She examines implications of new technologies and how society adapts to them, contemplating coping mechanisms. Via MBJ Wetware as a hybrid identity, Marija initiates collaborative live performances, simulating immersive heterotopian landscapes to be collectively inhabited. Her festival performances include commissions for CTM/ Deutschlandradio Kultur, a performance at Vorspiel and presentations at Transmediale and MIRA/Scope Sessions. Her past musical collaborators include JG Biberkopf, Iydes, A Guy Called Gerald and Mind:Bod
