Telcosystems

audiovisual - digital technology - experimental - film - sound

We, Lucas van der Velden and Gideon Kiers, work together in the Telcosystems collective. With Telcosystems we conduct research into old and new technologies, develop new technical applications, and create audiovisual installations, films, videos, soundtracks, and live performances. Real-time processes, 'living signals', and live improvisations with machines play an important role in our work.

Nuclear Landscapes - Nuclear Landscapes (2021-ongoing) is a long term research project investigating both the historical narratives of nuclear landscapes and their relations to host landscapes, as well as the technological means by which we render the invisible and silent aspects of these landscapes perceptible.
