The great-tailed grackle (Quiscalus mexicanus, in Colombia also known as María Mulata) is a highly sociable bird that has also appropriated Caribbean cities as a new habitat. In this video, images of María Mulatas have been transformed into synthesized sound and video sequences via PixelSynth. Thus, the creation of audio topographies from sonograms won out of images leads to a discretization of the original image, with the result alienating itself more and more from the original condition.
