Abstract

This work explores the problems presented by the notion of technological 'advantage' as it applies to Sound Arts and Computer Music at the border region of Tijuana/San Diego. It demonstrates the use of local knowledge from the city of Tijuana, Mexico through a site-specific installation presented at the end of 2009 at the Gallery @ Calit2 in San Diego. Certain strategies common to Latin-American countries, as represented by the unique case of Tijuana, are offered as to contrast with the developed countries understanding of current technology as the essential element in the construction of interesting and advanced philosophical models for the Sound Arts and technology-based musical production in general.
