Transvision is an extended play by German electronic artist Alva Noto. It was released in 2005 via Raster Noton label.[1][2]

Background

This is the second part of the transall tryptich that, according to the artist, respectively deals with one of three interrelated themes: the increased speed of information flow, utopias, and the fragmentation of ideas.[3] The record is accompanied by an essay written by theorist and filmmaker Kodwo Eshun who turns on ideas of freedom, intuition, and possibility in the service of erecting a nonument (sic). His most attractively cogent observation states that the enigma of the sonic makes life vivid.[4]
