The Automatic Message

Vancouver, Canada-based Trevor Jacobson and Tanya Goehring are The Automatic Message. They are an artist duo working in the fields of expanded and live cinema, as well as photography, new media and electronic music production.  Since forming The Automatic Message in 2006, Trevor and Tanya have been producing dark, off-kilter techno and supporting it with their own visual interpretations, which, in line with their music, creates a tremendous sense of unease and tension. They create surreal, emotional and immersive experiences by blending cinematic footage and experimental electronic music. Much of their work centers around themes of memory and the displacement thereof. They have been performing their work and collaborating with other artists across Canada, in the USA, Germany and Denmark.
