"Using reverse engineering techniques, Circular Void synthesizes and designs layers of sounds reminiscent of sewing machines, resulting in an experimental dressmaking soundscape. Resampled mechanical sounds of the workshop, intertwined with electronic elements of analogue and granular synthesis, shape reassembled textures of electroacoustic form. 

"The composition reflects the struggles of diasporas, the impact of alienation on generations of migrants, and questions the dynamics of global capitalism."
