“Cricket Cage” is the first of a series of artistic research projects on interspecies collaboration, based on the study and interpretation of the sensorial apparatus, as means of understanding their specific “Umwelt”. This project in particular, suggests a symbolic system of metabolic layers, following the idea of music and rhythm as social and cultural interfaces, as well as artifacts of ritual transcendence. With this work, the author makes use of audiovisual computer programming tools to establish a dialogue between a group of crickets, a human audience, and “x” (our individual or collective ideas of what lies outside our semiotic bubble).
