The world of digital technologies, of electronic sounds and images,
seems to be the natural surrounding for son:DA. In their work,
though, they are not fascinated with the endless possibilities of
new technologies. rather, they are critical and ironical towards
such fascinations. The constant multiplication of new technologies
and their effects turns into noise, just as the actual physical
space gets crowded with electric wires, cables, and piles of
hardware that used to be brand new, cutting edge technologie. The
works of son:DA are often deliberately simple and restrained,
sometimes using very basic technical possibilities that stress an
"underground" feeling. - - - written by: Igor Zabel _ aperto

tandem son:DA belongs to that area of art characterised by the
linking of various technologies and media, as well as a new
approach to group work. son:DA is active in the areas of
installations, computer drawing and audiovisual performance.
Characteristic motifs of this group are electrical cables and the
rest of the electrical menagerie, such as outlets, telephones, a
computer; in short, elements that represent connection and the
communication methods of modern society. The tandem son:DA creates
art with partners who change according to the needs of the project.
They are replacing traditional authorship with various forms of
participation. Impurity and hybridisation are characteristic both
in their individual processes as well as at the level of content.
son:DA uses a fresh approach to reinvigorate the irony of modern
society as seen, for example, in the films of Jacques Tati. Similar
to how the main character in the film ‘Mon Oncle’ becomes tangled
in an enormous number of plastic hoses, son:DA would intertwine a
figure with cables in their computer-generated drawings. All of
this serves as criticism of the absurdity of technologised modern
society and its alienation. - - - written by: Zdenka Badovinac _
