SOUND MACHINES

Upending traditional roles of player and played, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirleys _CANCEL YOURSELF_ (2024) is a multisensory, interactive game asking players to decide how they would like to cancel themselves. A set of accompanying posters poses these questions in graphic form. By turns biting and humorous, the game allows participants to find their own path amid social pressure, cultural tension, and difficult choices. _CANCEL YOURSELF_ is set to an ambient score: Listen hard. Dont let the sound wash over you.
