Doom scrolling is an improvisation employing artificial intelligence algorithms to sample, classify, process and play sound materials from Instagram Reels in real time during the performance.

The artist has no control over the appearing reels except for his daily scrolling behaviour being tracked and analysed by Instagram data collection algorithms. The work explores our online-identity through personalised video suggestion streams, emphasising how big data is shaping our individual reality by feeding us information that is said to be relevant for us, thereby defining/influencing who we are.
