Zoom as a Lo-fi Delay: Internet Feedback Loops with

A feedback loop incorporating Zoom conferencing software and two Eurorack synthesizers. Simon is ring-modulating and adding spring reverb to the feedback. I'm filtering and saturating the feedback. Zoom is delaying, data compressing and doing who knows what else to the feedback.
This Zoom feedback (Zoomscape) is an on-going project with Simon and I. More content in the works!

During the pandemic, conferencing software quickly became a required part of work and education culture.
Of course, this technology’s ability to keep us connected has been and important part of keeping people safe, but we’ve also discovered the quirks of this mode of communication. Being bound to this remote interaction inspires curiosity about its potential for collaborative creativity. Musicians have know for a while about the issues of internet latency in coordinating remote ensembles, but what if, instead of attempting to recreate the conditions of a traditional performance in this new medium, we embraced the “space” created by this conferencing software?
In this performance, two analog synthesizers are put into contact via conference software. The audio signal is sent between the two synthesizers, and a feedback loop is created between the two instruments.
Feedback loops, such as when we put a microphone close to a speaker, emphasize the resonant frequencies-the imperfections-of a system. As we know, the audio of conferencing software is an imperfect connection, with latency, filtering, and audio compression artifacts.
This conferencing-software feedback loop, then, emphasizes these imperfections, bringing out the character of this communication medium as an emergent soundscape.

Very cool stuff. I'm an old feedback monger (acoustically coupled bass guitar), it's awesome to see something this innovative.
