Yellow Wasabi

Yellow Wasabi, evolutionary biologist and new media artist in Paris. She combines sciences and arts to investigate the human position in the digital industry and ecological landscape. She uses computer programs and biological modules to innovate Guzheng, traditional Chinese harp; she shapes sound through AI motion capture and interactive projections. The noise of life is transformed into immaterial fossils of cognition that resonate with the audience’s emotional experience, improvising collectively to create an inclusive space.
