Agente Costura is a continuous building site for self playing, oscillating, blinking, touch sensitive, light sensitive, talking, soft, found, stitched, glitched, and hacked instruments, acting and reacting in an ever fluctuating state of chaos.

It’s all a matter of resistance.

performed with sewing machines turned into noise boxes,
layered with oscillating self made wearable instruments.


Lisa Simpson plays solo and in different constellations
of artists, musicians, dancers, and curious audiences.
