Xiao-wan and Malou form TWEE, who work with timbre transfers of archival materials from traditional instruments like the snake-skin erhu and organ. Focussing on material characteristics, sonic heritage, and hauntology, they conduct multi-channel live improvised performances to push timbre transfer models, explore their abilities, and cross-contaminate sound in space.
Xiao-wan is a Chinese-born percussionist, sound artist, and researcher based in London. She develops low-resource AI tools for audio, blending traditional and generative techniques. Malou, a Dutch multidisciplinary artist, digs into technological heritage and material culture through sound, performance and installation.
