About

Hybrid artist working with computational and speculative design, sculptural wearables, extended reality sonic interfaces, and physical immersion. We are focused on R&D technologies for writing and interpreting code from the past and the future, encompassing responsiveness, interactivity, and action as survival practices for mental health, healing, and ritual channeling prosthetics.

BACKGROUND
Julian Bonequi began his sound art career as a percussionist and improviser. He was interested in transmedia art associated with non-human futuristic scenarios and vocal trance channeling while studying Philosophy at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in the early 90s. After finishing specialized studies in Video Game Design and 3D Animation at the Pompeu Fabra University (2006-2009), he collaborated with the Neuroscience and Interactive Technology Groups of the UPF University in Barcelona (SPECS/GTI, 2008-2010) as a New Media Professor (2009-2024), as well as a guest performer with iconic orchestras and ensembles in Madrid, London, Berlin, Istanbul and Mexico (2004-2021), such as the London Improvisers Orchestra and the Berlin Improvisers Orchestra. Since then, his interest in speculative/critical design has evolved while hybridizing interactive art, extended reality automated scores, and innovative sonic immersion concepts for liminal-participatory narratology with ancestral Mesoamerican technologies, arts and crafts focused in the myth of "mestizaje" and decolonization. His most recent works for Holophrenic Theater (2016-2023) have focused on creating day-to-day interfaces that help us think through our bodies while channeling “haptically embodied cognition,” developing alternative knowledge models through the analysis and interaction of the planetary forms, the handcrafts, and materials, transitioning across code, textiles, body architecture, artificial intelligence, performing arts, sculptural art, interactive design, and experimental opera. Founder and Curator of Audition Records Berlin-Mexico (2010-2021).
