GRAYCODE, jiiiiin

GRAYCODE, jiiiiin is the ongoing collaboration between electroacoustic music composers Jinhee Jung (aka. jiiiiin) and Taebok Cho (aka. GRAYCODE). Using air vibrations, sound pressure, and musical tension and relaxation as their artistic language, they create work that uses sound to clearly show phenomena that are real yet invisible. The chief materials in their work are speakers and hardware systems that operate as instruments, resonating with elements in physical space. The wavelengths, undulations, and reverberations that are sensed through their work operate not only on hearing but on visual and tactile experience, encouraging the listener to pay close attention to their way of hearing. A text published for their 2021 exhibition Data Composition was selected for “Best Book Design from Republic of Korea” honors by the Korean Publishers’ Association, and they also received a 2018 Giga-Hertz Award presented by the Hertz-Lab (ZKM) and the SWR Experimental music studio in Karlsruhe, Germany.
