Human Physiology: Blood Flow + Control, 2024


Human Physiology: Blood Flow + Control (v. 8 chromatic) was hosted by send+receive festival of sound v.26 at The Output, Video Pool Media Arts Centre, October 11, 2024.


Human Physiology: Ch. 15, Blood Flow + Control is an experimental sound performance by Zoë LeBrun, which was hosted by send+receive at The Output, Video Pool Media Arts Centre, October 11, 2024 in Winnipeg, Manitoba.


Transposed from an anatomy textbook, Human Physiology: Blood Flow + Control is an algorithmic flute composition accompanied by solfeggio tones and sounds of the interior body. Paired with abstracted MRI imagery edited in Video Pool’s Analog Editing Suite, Blood Flow + Control parallels visual glitches with auditory ones, blurring the lines between bodies of text, sound, and the physical world through experimental live performance.
