Her\u00a0main field of research is based on an exploration of the materiality of objects, vibrant, ontological systems, and an investigation into modes of quasi-direct perception through noise performance actions, interactive installation, DIY electronics, hardware hacking, plant-molesting, breaking, deconstructing and collaborating.

They work with magnetic tape in sculptural configurations to loop and layer sound in often dense and haunting compositions. Their performances evoke the experimental era of emerging recordings played live with hands-on manipulation of their material, creating immersive soundscapes of mournfully melodies from a half-remembered past that might never have happened.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2456\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2456\" style=\"width: 655px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2456\" src=\"http:\/\/www.doc.gold.ac.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Courtesy-Ewa-Justka.jpg\" alt=\"Courtesy Ewa Justka\" width=\"655\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.doc.gold.ac.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Courtesy-Ewa-Justka.jpg 655w, http:\/\/www.doc.gold.ac.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Courtesy-Ewa-Justka-300x187.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.doc.gold.ac.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Courtesy-Ewa-Justka-480x300.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 655px) 100vw, 655px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2456\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ewa Justka<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ica.art\/whats-on\/eavi-live\"><strong>7pm: EAVI Live<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a>Live performances by <strong>Howlround<\/strong>, <strong>Calum Gunn<\/strong>, <strong>Ewa Justka<\/strong> and newly-assembled groups from the day\u2019s workshops.\u00a0There will also be DJ sets from <strong>Chloe Alice Frieda<\/strong> and <strong>CXLO<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Aligning with other aspects of the ICA&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ica.art\/information-exhibition\"><em>In formation<\/em> programme<\/a>, EAVI locate audiovisual performance within spaces of collaboration and sensory connectivity, articulating new ways for collective and individual interaction to promote learning and participation.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gold.ac.uk\/ug\/bmus-bsc-music-computing\/\">Study BMus\/BSc\u00a0Music Computing at Goldsmiths<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>London&#8217;s Institute of Contemporary Art hosts a day of workshops and performances curated by Goldsmiths Computing research assistant\u00a0Dr Adam Parkinson.
