The Digital Path To Analog Love:
4: Staring at the Ceiling

This is the fourth of a series of video installations that attempt to negotiate and navigate the space between the physical and the imaginary, between that which is tangible and that which is not.

Every Object or Person has at least a double history, one internal and almost secret and another which we project onto it.

In this case, the mattress documents on its rips and stains the the solitary intimacy of all who abandoned themselves there and left marks which are difficult to read, allusions to events that we can only imagine but we all somehow share.

Its counterpart is the image projected onto it, of someone who, before sleep but after wakefulness, stares at the ceiling, and when he does this he realizes that he abandons the image he himself projects, and that in so doing, in some way, he becomes a cloud, or a particle of a could, that he will wake tomorrow and be one again.

an investigation for the The Information is Not Knowledge Project, Curated by Amanda Thackray and James Prez, where “each artist was given one volume, from a complete set of Encyclopedia Britanicas, and asked to do whatever they pleased with it.”

I asked in turn artists and friends to help gestate the project following shifting rules, which can be summed up as of this moment as:

1. Choose a section of the encyclopedia (e.g. a page, an article, all the illustration of fish in this volume, etc);
2. Chew on it (literally) for a while, and then spit it out, or swallow, but in either case hold on to the remains and document the action.
3. Let’s talk about it aterwards (preferably via chat).
4. Make the remains dissappear. document this. tell me about it.
