Daphnis *they/ them, (GR) is a new media artist, noise maker/ performer and researcher. Their ongoing broader research questions how intimacy, love and poetry can be reconceived in a hyperreality, with the main purpose, in search of empathy. Particularly, now, they direct it towards sound/ noise, the neurodivergent mind and transness/ queerness.

They create immersive soundscapes from a combination of spoken words/ prose poems, recordings of technological objects, distorted sounds of instruments, analogue synths, and their body itself.


Currently, Daphnis is dreaming about imaginary automata.
