Pueblo was born a noiser in Chile and through her serpentine trajectory she is experimenting with sound, electronics, gesture, text, trying ways to make her practice conscious
of society and history. Circulation within mediascapes is controlled by various agendas that have
an effect on the legitimization of cultural content. The politics of circulation brings into view the
cybernetics of media. Some subjects are visible and some are not in the spaces where overt
collisions against subjectivities are being performed by market-driven logics. Continuous
ramps of information perform circuits and patterns. Subjectivity is shaped over media assembly
lines. I propose to look into the relevance of designing interventions as performances against
the homogeneity of mediascapes. noise/ retransmission / cut-up /overflow / persistent use of
