The technique used here is the “databending”, which is a form of “hacking” in the primary meaning of the word. Files or datastreams, whatever their original purpose is, are interpreted as audio files. Raw data often generates raw sounds, this is why Exomène developed a specific interpretation and refining process, partly based on spectrogram’s analysis and power spectral density.

Enough with theory! Here is a step by step explanation.


Databending does not apply to computers only. Like it’s altering the semantics of signs, databending is possible with all symbol systems such as the human brain. When a human brain bends data, it is also synesthesia: union of the senses, etymologically.

This device is therefore an artificial (multimodal and bidirectional) synesthete, its senses having been melt together. But that quality of being a synesthete is only the consequence of its primary function, which is to generate a synesthetic experience on its user. It’s an artificial synesthetic generator, what can be called a synaesizer.
