Joe Banks is an installation artist, researcher, and electronic musician behind the long-running project Disinformation. His work centers on electricity, communication, and language — often taking the form of electromagnetic sound pieces and audio-visual illusions. His latest piece, Language [as] Meta-Technology, pushes this inquiry further by challenging narrow definitions of what “counts” as language. Rather than limiting language to human syntax or computer code, the work proposes that language is everything we use to communicate — across species, histories, and technologies.
