Liesl Ujvary comes from a generation for whom using computers is not a given. Her approach is perhaps best described by Martin Breindl in his text “Movement in Possibility Forms, on Liesl Ujvary’s Music”:
“When the author Liesl Ujvary produces music or images, she plays ‘controlled games’ by transforming the numerous (sound and image) objects she has gathered around her from one (possible) state of being to another (equally possible) state of being. She can perform these transformations because she works exclusively on the virtual machine of which she herself has become an integral part as a cyborg. Her achievement as a cyborg is that she inwardly grasps and exploits the possibilities of this human-machine union. That is to say, she can traverse the fields of possibility that this technology offers.” (Martin Breindl)
This is my body. I am currently in this place. I have certain perceptions, ideas, and feelings. I am doing this and that right now. I am the cause and controller of my thoughts and actions. I talk about myself and think about myself. I have a certain [personality/character]. I am the person I was yesterday. (Liesl Ujvary)
