Bio	Michaela Lakova(BG) takes a lost and found approach to media. Her field of research and practice involves catchy bits and bytes of errors, systems malfunction and the inevitable generation of data traces and its problematic resistance to deletion.

Description of projects, part of body of work related to hard_drives' retrieval:

Generative koplet#1, #2, #3 are a series of videos shown in an installation at SaraTimTrust during the MuseumNacht in Rotterdam. (f.1, f.2, f.3) Two of the video works consist of textual and pictorial fragments of retrieved data from hard drives(from generative black and white maps, coordinates to a production line of workers assembling pineapples in Ghana).
Detailed description follows --> SEE THE PROPOSAL page_2
The soundtrack of the videos is a slightly distorted sound from a spinning hard drive drawing presence in the physical world. In addition to them the third video serves as a behind-the-scene of the actual recovery process, where I position myself at the centre, placing the hard drive into an ATA case and running the recovery software documenting every step of my own.
