YACHT stands for Young Americans Challenging High Technology, but they're neither young nor all-American. YACHT is three people—Jona Becholt, Claire L. Evans, and Rob Kieswetter—working in Los Angeles, California, asking questions and answering them with records, texts, videos, objects, installations, scores and performances. They make as much as possible with as little as possible and learn by doing.
Chain Tripping is their Grammy-nominated seventh album, composed by running their 18-year back catalogue through a scotch taped-together assortment of machine learning models and then reckoning with the results.
