	<p>The Writing Machines Ensemble, co-founded by it's current members, is an international group of experimental musicians from around the XPUB Studio. Independent and idealistic, they focus on blending the role of 'instrument' and 'musician' in an assemblage of artistic creation, striving to find the essential musical quality in tools of writing. Since its debut in September 2025, the ensemble has performed ~~once~~ on WORM Radio, for the 5th edition of XPUB's Special Issue Radio show, where the group's unique live scoring method was born.</p>		<p>The Writing Machines Ensemble, co-founded by it's current members, is an international group of experimental musicians from around the XPUB Studio.

	<p>While discussing our concept, we came to an understanding that we were dealing with the '''cognitive assemblage''' concept by '''Katherine Hayles''' [see Glossary]. The trial and error while trying out rhythms on the typewriters, and getting the Dot Matrix to work, gave us the insight that we’re working with '''more cognitive agents other than ourselves'''. They needed special use and care. Only working with us if handled in it’s right form. They’re delicate machines. It was clear that we couldn’t just exploit their talents.</p>		<p>While discussing our concept, we came to an understanding that we were dealing with the '''cognitive assemblage''' concept by '''Katherine Hayles''' [<nowiki/>[[SI28-Glossary#Cognitive Assemblages\|see Glossary]]].
