The Museum of Modern Strategy was invitated to take part in the Convex.tv's [.format] project (Berlim, 1999). The sound piece was created translating directly a .txt file to a .aiff file. No filters. The same bytes. Only some later studio work. It's a kind of musical rectified ready-made and it's also about translating a text to a raw audio format. We have the same components but no content at all (at least the not original one). The text *translated* into a new format is part of Clausewitz's "On war". For the Museum of Modern Strategy the Format invitation was a important opportunity to start developing new fields of work. First, by *creating* sound pieces, and second having the opportunity to splinter the contents of some war theory classics (as the MOMS had done in other occasions, but not exactly with sound).
And right now the MUSEUM is working on a all new range of sound pieces (ready-mades and rectified ready-mades) in collaboration with other musicians.

Bird's Eye

A video installation presented for the first time in the exhibition "Jetlag" (Lisbon, University Campus, 1996). It consists of a serie of interviews with f-16 pilots, on a unique 80 minutes video and mounted in a way that destroys any documental possibility.

"Grenades in their eyes", Jetlag - 1996 (detail)
"Bunker - Museum of Modern Strategy", 1997.
