Strategies for an Auction is a speculative sound installation composed of multiple sound objects, each consisting of a tripod, a speaker and a display. The objects generate series of sound impulses. Operating in parallel, the behavior of the objects is synchronized, forming an intricate, collective choreography.
This choreography reenacts the real-time bidding algorithms used by online advertisement platforms to determine which advertisements are displayed. Rather than revealing the outcome of these processes, the installation directs attention towards internal structures. Since these aspects are not publicly documented, the ar tist speculated on the specifics of the implementation.
