We should have as many voices interspersing as possible เราควรแทรกเสียงเข้าไปให้ได้มากที่สุด is multichannel work from elekhlekha อีเหละเขละขละ offers a circular seating arrangement using small plastic stools typically found in restaurants, shops, and establishments across Southeast Asia. Part audiovisual installation, part speculative ritual, a performance plays out across interconnected speakers and transducers whose sounds and vibrations echo a communal gong ensemble. Here, the hypnotic repetition of the hocketing technique is sonically replicated, with melodies and rhythms from various Southeast Asian communities distributed across each chair.
Following the enveloping sonic environment, audio-reactive videos feature glitched and distorted propaganda footage from the Cold War era, along with generative graphics of prose from Thai writer and activist Jitr Poumisak.
