We discussed my upcoming show where my sculpture and film work bring to light issues around the advancement of technology and how this is affecting our environment and physical bodies, and how our relationship with body and technology is born from our experience of the organic.
My audio for my film work, created from sounds of tools, materials and sounds of nature (waves, water, wind, the movement of trees, bird song, bees) and how this sounds highlight the impact on our rhythms.
Use the headphones in the show as a way of engaging viewers with the artwork.
How valuable it is to take some time to consider how to document the installation and the opening eve and how viewers engage with the art works. See what and how I can record in the space and learn how the work functions within the space and environment.
Lastly we discussed the end of the MA course and the possibilities of growth, and the further development of this particular work and its rationale.
Josie mentioned a couple of artists (links below) and ideas that were being used within their work to do with the amalgamation of body, nature and technology.
Artist Adam Chodzko
Working with computer coders, Black Shuck, Chodzko has developed an algorithm that searches for ciphers - signs and letters created for a secret language, the Lingua Ignotae, by the 12th Century Christian mystic Hildegard von Bingen. The algorithm scans footage of undergrowth, woodland and forest, looking for the ciphers in the shadows between and under the vegetation.
Artist Pierre Huyghe
Pierre Huyghe is one of the world’s leading artists. He creates porous and contingent environments, complex systems in which living and non-living, real and symbolic agents evolve.
