How do portable personal devices become prostheses for their human users? Could the combination of humans and wired or wireless earphones—such a common sight on the road—be considered an evolutionary extension of our bodies? Rudimentary organs still exist within us, reflecting the coexistence of evolution and devolution—a recursive and continuous mixture. Imagining fragments of the corporeal body as potential components of new hybrids, Sync explores the transformations of both body and environment that occur when connecting to ear devices, as we repeatedly shift between modes and connections.
