Surface tension is a new "sound sculpture" from renown audio installation artist i8u aka France Jobin. Based on field recordings taken from Canada and the EU, the prolific Jobin freely integrates digital, analog, glitch and drone into a field of aural vision that simultaneously exhibits micro and macro perspectives on a complex, yet inviting, environmental theme.
i8u's art is about juxtapositions, analogue to digital, aural to visual,
technological to philosophical. Her installations can often be experienced in live events and festivals across the Canada, the United States, South America and Europe.
