noise is not necessarily unwanted, quite the opposite. how can we prove that chaotic systems gain stability and order that end up being self-organized because of noise, with common thinking and common practice? can the noise in these systems favor strong memory built-up? noise sources are found everywhere, such as in the workplace, on the street, around and inside us. but noise is a multidimensional concept and its materiality varies, according to the transmitter.

the piece  is  a   commentary on  contact,  the  one

that involves  physicality.  contact  in  an unknown/

unassisted environment  expressed through noise.

noise is an indeterminate  signal, contact begins as

this indeterminate signal  and  energy is needed to

generate a signal. the  mystery of tangible contact

arises and is synthesized by    this  noise. does self-

organization  consolidate the  chances   of contact

and   increase  them?  are  these   self - organizing

noise units in libido? noise decoding  also  includes

noise. the dominating aspect  of  this  piece  is  the

game around that non-specific noise!
