ABOUT

Agnès Hayden is a multidisciplinary artist and technologist based in Madrid, working as a filmmaker, music producer, DJ, and programmer. Her practice explores performance and audiovisual production centered on digital culture, and the intersection between analog cinematographic methods and contemporary technologies such as artificial intelligence, programming, and 3D rendering.

Agnès is recognized for transforming complex material and technological processes into meaningful visual and sonic experiences — offering a renewed perspective on contemporary experimental cinema and the plastic possibilities of the moving image through technological transformation.

In the sonic realm, Agnès produces her own music under her solo project Ghidra, and as part of the duo Basilisque (under the label Snap! Clap! Club). Her performances are immersive sonic rituals — charged with adrenaline and energy — always driven  by experimentation and avant-garde sounds.

She has been featured internationally on platforms such as TSUM Records, MERCILESS, Obscuur Records, and The Meaning of Rave, and has performed across Europe.

Her work has been showcased at international festivals and venues including Beijing International Short Film Festival (China), Sorigrim (Seoul), the8fest and Images Festival (Toronto), Peripheries (Chicago), Experiments in Cinema (New Mexico), Elevation Film Festival (UK), Intermediaciones (Colombia), Light Matter (Argentina), S8 Mostra de Cinema Periférico (Spain), Círculo de Bellas Artes, Matadero and Academia de Cine Español (Madrid), among others.
