For Bootleg Oracle, alfatih used a synthetic media software to animate domestic objects with the voices of political leaders delivering speeches. The voices of leaders across the globe, who attempt to pacify and manipulate via political speech, is seen instead creeping into domestic voids, acting as the occupant of dim unpeopled rooms.
alfatih lives and works in Switzerland. He has presented interactive, installation and video works in institutions and spaces such as CIRCUIT Contemporary Art Center (CH); MASI Museo d'arte della Svizzera italiana (CH), Sentiment (CH), Musée des Beaux-Arts, Le Locle (CH); Biennale de l’Image en Mouvement, Geneva (CH); Swiss Institute, New York (US); Kora Arts Center, Castrignano (IT); Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts, Lausanne (CH); Fri Art Kunsthalle, Fribourg (CH); Centre d'Art Contemporain, Geneva (CH) and Haus der Elektronischen Künste, Basel (CH).
