Iona University announces dependent / variable, a spatial sound installation by composer and sound artist Joseph Branciforte. Built from a constellation of distributed computing modules—each running its own sonic logic—the work establishes shifting territories of sound throughout the gallery. As visitors move through the space, they trace unique paths across overlapping fields, overhear fragments of dialogue between modules, and notice alignments that appear, vanish, and return in ever-changing configurations.
