    For almost 6 months, I’ve been working with Allora & Calzadilla to realize one the works for the US Pavilion at this year’s Venice Biennale. “Algorithm” is a 6-meter tall pipe organ, built by Klais Orgelbau in Bonn Germany, connected to a working Diebold ATM machine. Via a performance system developed by Anthony Baillard, whenever a customer uses the ATM machine, music from a roughly hour-long composition that I wrote for this piece will be performed on the organ.
