Nicoline van Harskamp. Contagious Speech. 2022. Compilation of video stills.

We warmly invite you to the opening of Contagious Speech, a solo exhibition by Nicoline van Harskamp. Contagious Speech presents how video conferencing and synthetic speech systems are affecting our way of speaking in real life, and how breathing patterns are central to this process.

The video Contagious Speech shows an array of experts, such as a computational linguist, a medic and a human beatboxer, sometimes directly conversing with the synthesised voice of the artist. Their ‘breathless’ contributions come to life in the exhibition through the voice of a live performer. 

See you soon, Manifold Books
