Codes is a newly-founded collaboration between Kamari Carter and Gladstone Deluxe that features an audio-visual durational performance using data extracted from live police scanner transmissions as a primary material for musical exploration. Deriving from Carter’s research-oriented practice revolving heavily around policing, incarceration, Black aesthetics, and surveillance, and Deluxe’s haptic, Afrological and techno-inspired analog compositional strategies, Codes works towards a synthesis of both schools of thought, and seeks to elevate the obfuscated.
