Technosonics: Immersion
The Technosonics 2024 Immersion Festival explores paths of practice, product, experience, and performance that can surround, consume, inhabit, or otherwise envelop the mind, body, or world. In sound, we often encounter immersion through multi-channel surround sound projection, in virtual environments experienced through binaural audio, through environmental ambiance, or through real-time extrapolation of multimodal spaces through human improvisation. Immersion might also refer to an environment or space recast as artistic conception; or it could be a way of living, a state of mind, a political framework, a form of order, uplifting, suffocating, engaging, or otherwise. Technosonics 2024 Immersion invites you to Immerse Yourself!
This year’s festival will take place Thursday, October 17th - Saturday, October 19th 2024 and features special guest artist Rohan Chander (aka BAKUDI SCREAM). All events showcase new works of electronic music, intermedia, and sound art by the faculty, staff, and graduate students of the CCT program. All events are free and open to the public.

Rohan Chander (a.k.a BAKUDI SCREAM) is an electronic musician and artist based in Los Angeles. Described as “hypersensory” (Washington Post), “remarkably alive” (The Wire Magazine), and of “transcendent metamorphosis” (I Care If You Listen), Rohan’s work explores gothic, science-fiction storytelling as rewriting of personal and shared histories. Performance space collapses into BAKUDI SCREAM’s various avatars of the Architect Prince, somnus, HINDOO, and FUTURANGEL through pursuit of the romantic and gruesome– tales of hackers and lovelorn heroes breaking and restructuring within new ecologies. Positionality is not a constant but a perpetually mutating agent, driving the work of BAKUDI SCREAM to explore the forces behind shared space and the glitches that flower intimacy.
