Detaily

Created during Christmas 2015, this work explores language distortion and meaning reversal. The composer initially considered using Siri dictation to create confusion between Czech and English, but ultimately employed an online gibberish generator to transform a political speech into absurdist parody. The piece juxtaposes the original Czech text with algorithmically generated English output, creating contradictory meanings while maintaining the source's tonal qualities. This technique produces a satirical commentary on political discourse through linguistic manipulation rather than direct critique.
