The first public activity of the applied research program Organismo 2026, developed in collaboration with TBA21–Academy, presents the work of sound artist Polifeme with her project Imagosoni, an exploration of the electromagnetic relationship between image, light, and sound that begins with a question: What happens beyond the visible when we look at a screen? The event has been conceived together with the collective Real No Real.
In cathode-ray televisions, the image is not a flat surface but the result of the impact of electron beams that generate photons of light. This physical process produces a fluctuating electromagnetic field that traverses space and surrounds us continuously, as it is part of our universe. Through analog devices, Polifeme translates these invisible emissions into sonic matter. A sound that emerges as the direct trace of luminous and electrical behavior, revealing a vibratory dimension. The screen ceases to be a medium of representation and becomes an active object that resonates. A sensory experience in which the boundaries between seeing and hearing dissolve. An event that invites the audience to perceive light as an energetic phenomenon that can be heard and experienced through the body.
Polifeme is the sound project of María Cervelló Llorca (Valencia, 1986). Her work unfolds at the intersection of art, technology, and experimentation, exploring performative formats and audiovisual practices. She has participated in festivals such as LEM, Volumens, Blurred Edges, and Braille Satellite; presented her work in venues such as the Museum of Music of Barcelona, Cal Massó, and the IVAM; and collaborated with artists and collectives from the contemporary scene in Spain and across Europe. Her intuitive and self-taught practice combines research and improvisation, offering an immersive experience in which machines transcend their function to sound together. It highlights, as futurism did at the dawn of electronic music, the continuous presence of noise.
Real No Real is a non-profit arts organization based in Madrid. Operating in independent spaces, it brings together a series of performances and workshops mainly revolving around experimental music and sound art with occasional incursions into other disciplines, bridging past and contemporary creation. Real No Real is composed by Pablo G. Cornejo, Juan Vacas, Miguel Estades, Pablo Mirón, Adriana Casado, and Pedro D. Saiz.
