Before the work becomes visible, it exists as structure, timing, and trust.

Rehearsals.
Adjusting distances between bodies, machines, and sound.
Presence becomes labor.

The system was activated.

Idle Labor unfolded at @mqwien.bsky.social - a durational installation where listening circulated between bodies and machines.
Less spectacle.
More attention.

A body among machines.

This week in Vienna, I’m presenting a new performative installation at the MQ Artist-in-Residence Exhibition.

The artist becomes infrastructure. The machine becomes author. Presence becomes labor.

Images.
Rooms.
Systems.

Some artworks feel like answers.
Others feel like unfinished problems - and those are the ones that keep pulling me back.

In Vienna, I’m listening not only to sound,
but to how attention is organized by images and machines.

Some works demand to be looked at.
Others ask to be listened to.

Metabolica in Vienna unfolded as a layered system of matter, rhythm, and hidden acoustics.

Grateful to Thomas Feuerstein for allowing me to listen closer and record what usually remains unheard.

Fragments soon.

Before making sound, I listen.
Before creating anything, I experience.
Rooms.
Other artists’ work.
What the space is already saying.

Residency isn’t always about output.
Sometimes it’s about absorption - and letting the place shape you.
Vienna, I’m listening.

Mindscapes in The Austin Chronicle.

Part of an ongoing practice around listening, perception, and how sound shapes inner space.

Grateful for the attention, and for places that allow work like this to exist publicly.

Back at the desk.
No destination in mind.
Just listening, again.

Cornershop was never just a name.

I always start in a local store - that’s where a place reveals itself: food, rhythm, language, advice.

On the island, lokma became part of that ritual.
A pause to taste the world as it is.

Cornershop Adaları
no queue. open 24 hours.

Passed a shepherd tending sheep on Büyükada.
No cars. No urgency. Just rhythm.
I recorded the bells, then realized the island didn’t want documentation - it wanted interpretation.
Movement. Routine. Listening from a distance.

Quince found me. 🍂
My favorite fruit, memories of grandma’s house and countryside - and it appeared on Büyükada Island. Farmers bring produce island to island: Türkiye, Bulgaria, little surprises from Ukraine.

Fog changes the island.
Softens everything. Cancels ferries. Turns Büyükada into something mystical and isolated.
Night walks felt Lynchian - outlines instead of streets, sound moving strangely through the air.
These moments shaped Cornershop Adaları more than any plan.

Ok, nerd stuff…🎹
2021. I’m on an island, exploring pedals, synths, keyboards, and improvs for hours. Some ideas ridiculous, some meaningful. Five islands, daily crossings, the project built itself.
Where creativity is alive, playful, honest.

Büyükada has its rulers, and they walk on four legs 🐾 Rooftops, streets, park benches - sometimes too friendly (love bites included). 🙃
On the island, I felt both small and lucky, moving through their world.

Princes' Islands matched my inner rhythm: quiet corners, slow mornings. Büyükada felt like home; I explored Heybeliada for different textures of calm. Strange enough, the same instinct took me to Egypt’s desert - learning to hear myself in unfamiliar places. 🏝

In Egypt I went from laughing at nothing to questioning my whole existence.
Then Istanbul hit like music after silence.
By the time I reached the island, the contrast had already rewritten something in me.

First steps into Istanbul: the city moves in every direction at once.
Horns, ferries, prayer calls - whole city sings in layers.
From Sultanahmet, Bosphorus felt like a threshold.
The island was close, but already a different world.

Thresholds feel the same - airports, borders, immigration lines.
The rush, the noise… then the quiet you create for yourself.
Travel teaches small rituals for staying calm.
Different places, same clarity. 🧳✈

Some places reset you.
For me, it was the ferry - watching the Marmara fade and return.
A quiet loop from shore to shore.

On the island, the first thing you do is find yourself.
Usually by listening.
You take in its frequencies - past you carried, the now you’re standing in, future you stop chasing.
Follow trees, trails, wind - and the island starts revealing itself in layers.
That’s where the album began forming.

Arriving on Büyükada after Egypt - the noise stopped, and something quieter began.
I didn’t know what Cornershop Adaları would become, only that the island felt alive.
A mixtape between continents, made of air, sea, and sound.

Cornershop Adaları is here.
Made on Büyükada Island - a continuous, experiential release with no breaks.
It follows wonder, not format.
A story of revival, self-discovery, and being alive in the present.

I hope it finds you.
