Crossed Wires is an interactive sound installation that repurposes obsolete consumer electronics—CRT televisions, rotary phones, and other analog devices—into playable sonic instruments. This work explores the intersection of technology, memory, and the physicality of sound, transforming once-passive objects into tools for dynamic sonic exploration.
