Charlotte de Witte previewed “Tales Of The Desert” with NAVA, a disclosed AI-generated Persian vocalist created by British-Iranian digital artist Farbod Mehr. The track is expected on the three-song Azadi EP in November.

NAVA is presented as a symbolic voice for Iranian women who face restrictions on singing publicly. That concept has divided listeners: some welcome the visibility, while others question why a human Iranian vocalist was not used instead.

Why it matters: Disclosure is a strong first step, but the provenance of NAVA’s voice has not been publicly explained. A project centered on freedom and representation needs an equally clear answer about whether any human vocal material was licensed and used with consent.
