Abstract or Description:

Commissioned art work for Open Sky Gallery. Moving image installation situated on the LED public screen facia of the ICC tower in Hong Kong. May-December 2016 Video, 2015, 2’00”, ISEA2016 HONG KONG OPEN SKY PROJECT “Ours is a world in vertigo. It is a world that swarms with technological mediation, interlacing our daily lives with abstraction, virtuality, and complexity.” Cuboniks, Laboria, Xenofeminism: A politics for alienation, 2015. The fractured drift of the perpetual loop and harsh regression of the gif animation with its belligerent stutter both in their own way present new modalities, ruptures in our understanding of time, new paradigms, variant ontologies, recursive action, indefinite progression, endless reiteration. High frequency trading algorithms, twitter feeds, data flow, meme generators, click streams; modernity hums with relentless aetheric data coursing through the veins of our cities.
