0:00:00.181,0:00:01.347
A thing is happening.

0:00:01.847,0:00:04.947
Beauty's at work through [br]pure and selfless acceptance,

0:00:04.947,0:00:08.195
through everyday transcendence[br]that remedies the chaos,

0:00:08.195,0:00:11.414
an antidote to the sorrow [br]on this earth for eternity.

0:00:11.414,0:00:14.955
Music heard so deeply [br]that it is not heard at all.

0:00:14.955,0:00:17.836
You are the music while the music lasts.

0:00:17.836,0:00:20.305
Insist on beauty in spite of everything.

0:00:20.305,0:00:21.317
Decorum.

0:00:25.737,0:00:28.685
As I'm walking, I see [br]you on your motorbike.

0:00:29.203,0:00:31.453
I can see your blue eyes [br]and nose peering underneath

0:00:31.453,0:00:33.279
the crash helmet.

0:00:33.279,0:00:34.255
And it's not you.

0:00:34.255,0:00:36.041
It's just a man that looks like you.

0:00:36.711,0:00:38.275
I'm disappointed every time.

0:00:38.775,0:00:42.700
Every time I see a man on a motorbike,[br]I think it's my dad.

0:00:44.180,0:00:45.702
I'm not sure why this is.

0:00:47.802,0:00:50.072
Sometimes I forget [br]what your bike looks like.

0:00:51.032,0:00:53.553
Everyone's eyes and faces [br]look the same underneath

0:00:53.553,0:00:55.211
black crash helmets.

0:00:55.211,0:00:58.114
From a distance, everyone looks like you.

0:00:58.114,0:00:59.984
Although soon I realize it's not.

0:01:01.354,0:01:03.354
I remember you used [br]to paint pictures of naked women

0:01:03.354,0:01:05.696
in crash helmets.

0:01:05.696,0:01:08.268
Their identities were hidden too.

0:01:08.268,0:01:10.847
I always wondered who these women were,

0:01:10.847,0:01:14.407
their shiny black round heads [br]like lollipops.

0:01:14.407,0:01:15.526
Props.

0:01:17.186,0:01:18.584
Who were they, dad?

0:01:21.910,0:01:24.035
(inhales softly)

0:01:24.335,0:01:26.509
(exhales softly)

0:01:27.008,0:01:36.753
(silence)

0:01:55.530,0:01:56.612
Breath.

0:02:01.433,0:02:03.994
(approaching footsteps)

0:02:09.000,0:02:10.279
A laughing heart...

0:02:12.112,0:02:13.563
Your life is your life.

0:02:14.481,0:02:16.694
Don't let it be clubbed into submission.

0:02:17.731,0:02:20.616
Be on the watch.[br]There are ways out.

0:02:21.093,0:02:22.525
There's light somewhere.

0:02:23.235,0:02:25.928
It may not be much light, [br]but it beats the darkness.

0:02:26.558,0:02:27.928
Be on the watch.

0:02:28.498,0:02:30.521
The gods will offer you chances.

0:02:31.081,0:02:33.536
Know them. Take them.

0:02:34.196,0:02:38.682
You can't beat death, [br]but you can beat death in life sometimes.

0:02:39.782,0:02:41.921
And the more often you learn to do it,

0:02:42.641,0:02:44.328
the more light there will be.

0:02:45.248,0:02:46.792
Your life is your life.

0:02:47.212,0:02:48.760
Know it while you have it.

0:02:49.550,0:02:51.237
You are marvelous.

0:02:52.517,0:02:54.901
The gods wait to delight in you.

0:03:03.091,0:03:05.972
Rascal was a wildcat [br]when it was four degrees outside.

0:03:06.888,0:03:09.658
When I moved in she'd stand [br]with me in winter and rain,

0:03:09.658,0:03:12.095
sleep with me, mostly outside.

0:03:12.845,0:03:15.079
Hunter, I never tried to break her spirit.

0:03:17.049,0:03:18.685
Hit by a car in front of me.

0:03:19.565,0:03:20.755
I was shocked.

0:03:21.625,0:03:24.281
I buried her by cat litter and wild food,

0:03:24.281,0:03:26.527
her sunshine place [br]could only dig the stones

0:03:26.527,0:03:29.948
because of city sewage pipes [br]about three or four feet.

0:03:30.998,0:03:35.176
I wish it was deeper, next to keep [br]other animals from digging her up.

0:03:35.176,0:03:36.685
When I find stones, I'll cover up

0:03:36.685,0:03:39.231
[inaudible] begin to swell.

0:03:39.231,0:03:42.143
If so, I'll put more soil on top.

0:03:43.123,0:03:47.103
First, cat and friend.

0:03:51.293,0:03:53.779
Hi. Yeah.

0:03:54.921,0:03:57.160
I saw you last night. Hmm.

0:03:58.091,0:04:00.255
I was in the club. Yup.

0:04:01.755,0:04:03.211
I saw who you were with too.

0:04:04.112,0:04:05.992
She was holding you so tight.

0:04:06.263,0:04:07.962
Because she knows you want me.

0:04:09.605,0:04:12.265
Oh, naw. She can't love you.

0:04:12.995,0:04:14.651
She can't love you like I do.

0:04:16.350,0:04:19.415
I said to myself that [br]you must be out of your mind.

0:04:19.415,0:04:20.949
You were there with somebody else.

0:04:20.949,0:04:22.694
You know you're wasting your time.

0:04:23.814,0:04:24.999
Oh, no.

0:04:24.999,0:04:26.445
But she can't love you.

0:04:27.065,0:04:28.775
She can't love you like I do.

0:04:29.835,0:04:32.996
You're missing my beat[br]and I'm needing your moves.

0:04:34.150,0:04:37.049
Let's give it one more try.[br]Let's get back in the groove.

0:04:37.679,0:04:39.355
Because she can't love you.

0:04:40.965,0:04:42.756
She can't love you like I do.

0:04:47.306,0:04:49.749
When I was younger, [br]my father was the producer

0:04:49.749,0:04:53.645
of a transvestite troupe[br]and it seemed a dream for me

0:04:53.645,0:04:56.198
to be able to observe [br]what was behind the curtain.

0:04:56.858,0:04:59.817
I think this is when it all started,[br]while growing up.

0:04:59.817,0:05:01.818
I kept on searching [br]for this feeling of wonder,

0:05:01.818,0:05:03.738
this taste for metamorphosis.

0:05:04.788,0:05:08.205
I direct speak of cabarets,[br]shows, or even strange.

0:05:08.545,0:05:12.446
From video to another, [br]off the same protagonist progresses

0:05:12.446,0:05:16.015
in this mysterious [br]and phantasmagorical universe.

0:05:16.015,0:05:19.180
I consider my videos as living paintings.

0:05:19.180,0:05:22.013
I use the camera [br]as a painter with his brushes.

0:05:24.573,0:05:26.235
What could my world be made of?

0:05:29.775,0:05:33.453
Red. Green. Blue.

0:05:35.715,0:05:39.264
Red. Green. Blue.

0:05:41.161,0:05:44.407
Red. Green. Blue.

0:05:48.784,0:05:52.110
If you want to turn yourself [br]into a proud samurai warrior,

0:05:52.110,0:05:54.708
you need the katana samurai sword.

0:05:54.708,0:05:57.870
This high-quality plastic weapon [br]is a Japanese long sword

0:05:57.870,0:06:01.639
which will look just perfect [br]with your traditional Japanese hakama

0:06:01.639,0:06:03.805
and the traditional Japanese geta.

0:06:03.805,0:06:06.424
And add the finishing touch [br]to your Asian outfit:

0:06:06.424,0:06:08.435
the black and gold katana samurai sword

0:06:08.435,0:06:10.548
comes with a matching black scabbard

0:06:10.548,0:06:12.535
so it can be stored safely.

0:06:12.535,0:06:14.768
The Japanese sword [br]will protect you in fights

0:06:14.768,0:06:17.268
and is sure to make you [br]an eye-catcher in any party.

0:06:17.268,0:06:20.162
Size length, 105 centimeters.

0:06:20.162,0:06:22.634
Blade length, 70 centimeters.

0:06:22.634,0:06:24.578
Material, plastic.

0:06:29.938,0:06:33.279
Yeah, so... a couple years ago

0:06:33.279,0:06:35.781
a bunch of us went down to the beach

0:06:35.781,0:06:41.068
and we got there and coast guards running

0:06:41.068,0:06:43.218
all up and down the sand like,[br]"You can't get in the water."

0:06:43.218,0:06:44.914
You know?[br]Screaming at us.

0:06:45.545,0:06:47.724
So we waited a bit and they went [br]further down the beach

0:06:47.724,0:06:49.628
and then we decided we would go.

0:06:49.628,0:06:51.498
Like, what the fuck?[br]Why did we come here?

0:06:51.498,0:06:55.765
So my buddy went down there and he's like,

0:06:55.765,0:06:57.353
"All good, come down here, man."

0:06:57.353,0:07:00.461
So I walked over and we looked down.

0:07:00.461,0:07:02.038
And we couldn't see it [br]from where we were parked,

0:07:02.038,0:07:04.468
but when we looked down, [br]we were really close,

0:07:04.468,0:07:07.066
you looked down and there [br]just all these fucking jellyfish.

0:07:07.066,0:07:11.262
Like, one every... like all over the place.

0:07:11.262,0:07:13.616
One every two or three feet.

0:07:13.616,0:07:16.588
And from where we were standing,[br]you couldn't really tell

0:07:17.258,0:07:20.158
if they were living or dead, you know?

0:07:20.158,0:07:22.049
'Cause some of them were still moving,

0:07:22.049,0:07:26.656
but then others were just totally limp.

0:07:30.796,0:07:34.228
So... tell me what it's like [br]growing up in Singapore.

0:07:38.727,0:07:43.550
Well, we had... I had [br]these really magnificent memories

0:07:43.550,0:07:45.409
of my childhood.

0:07:45.409,0:07:48.193
We had these magnificent playgrounds.

0:07:49.783,0:07:51.734
There was, like, these big watermelons.

0:07:54.214,0:07:58.173
I remember I used to climb [br]to the top of the watermelon

0:07:58.173,0:08:00.818
and I'd rub myself on the ridges

0:08:01.438,0:08:02.868
to give myself pleasure.

0:08:12.210,0:08:14.645
You think we could fall [br]in love on the internet?

0:08:20.932,0:08:21.961
No.

0:08:26.191,0:08:28.986
'Cause it wouldn't be love.[br]It'd just be porn.

0:08:31.513,0:08:32.794
I don't think so.

0:08:36.445,0:08:40.971
Seen from a distance,[br]almost everything looks beautiful.

0:08:40.971,0:08:45.158
As the distance increases, [br]the more you romanticize.

0:08:45.158,0:08:49.540
All the small details from [br]the everyday reminisces the past.

0:08:49.540,0:08:53.509
Because things we want to forget [br]are the things we can never forget.

0:08:59.332,0:09:00.507
DO IT!

0:09:01.495,0:09:03.116
JUST DO IT!

0:09:04.306,0:09:06.930
Don't let your dreams be dreams.

0:09:07.310,0:09:09.260
Yesterday you said tomorrow.

0:09:09.260,0:09:11.503
So just DO IT!

0:09:11.503,0:09:13.920
Make your dreams come true!

0:09:13.920,0:09:16.064
Just DO IT!

0:09:18.587,0:09:21.475
Some people dream of success[br]while you're gonna wake up

0:09:21.475,0:09:22.860
and work hard at it!

0:09:22.860,0:09:24.805
Nothing is impossible.

0:09:26.435,0:09:29.797
You should get to the point[br]where anyone else would quit

0:09:29.797,0:09:31.857
and you're not gonna stop there.

0:09:32.387,0:09:34.189
No, what are you waiting for?

0:09:35.229,0:09:36.513
DO IT!

0:09:38.093,0:09:41.041
Just... DO IT!

0:09:41.191,0:09:42.588
Yes, you can!

0:09:42.978,0:09:44.350
Just do it.

0:09:48.860,0:09:53.741
If you're tired of starting over,[br]stop giving up.

0:10:03.207,0:10:05.607
Emerging gaming technologies [br]operate within a nexus

0:10:05.607,0:10:08.691
of social relationships that [br]characterize the modern world.

0:10:08.691,0:10:11.587
These technologies enable [br]a constant commentary

0:10:11.587,0:10:13.788
which has become [br]the quintessential quality of power,

0:10:13.788,0:10:16.896
often operating as mechanisms [br]that dictate our action

0:10:16.896,0:10:18.853
and pre-ordain our expectations.

0:10:18.853,0:10:21.853
The work interrogates [br]the cultural logic of feedback

0:10:21.853,0:10:24.281
as a metaphor and material condition.

0:10:24.281,0:10:28.275
It is live, cybernetic, reactive.

0:10:28.275,0:10:32.807
Sensory data translated [br]through visual and tactile apparatus.

0:10:32.807,0:10:36.760
Disillusion of the virtual [br]and corporeal boundary,

0:10:36.760,0:10:42.354
reorienting perspective of the existing[br]and the alternative space and time.

0:10:42.354,0:10:45.298
An avatar in symbiosis with the subject,

0:10:45.298,0:10:50.195
taking the lead in a continuous loop [br]of action and reaction.

0:10:58.247,0:10:59.813
We're surrounded by forms.

0:11:02.270,0:11:03.810
Yet it's still so elusive, right?

0:11:05.633,0:11:08.892
You know, sometimes it feels [br]like we fill that void between us

0:11:08.892,0:11:10.773
with something that grows slowly,

0:11:10.773,0:11:12.621
like it's overtaking us or something.

0:11:12.621,0:11:16.607
Through the way we speak,[br]or what we do,

0:11:16.607,0:11:18.172
where we put stuff around us,

0:11:18.172,0:11:21.819
even the stances we inhabit[br]or the faces we make

0:11:21.819,0:11:24.223
or even the body parts, you know?

0:11:24.223,0:11:25.793
The food we eat. Whatever.

0:11:25.793,0:11:29.426
Sometimes it gets heavier, you know?

0:11:29.426,0:11:33.480
Or more light, but [br]it's like all the distinctions

0:11:33.480,0:11:35.696
are starting to melt away.

0:11:35.696,0:11:40.181
The forms, the resemblances,[br]the symmetries,

0:11:40.181,0:11:41.916
the repetitions, the patterns.

0:11:41.916,0:11:45.861
Patterns that we know we have always had,

0:11:45.861,0:11:48.521
that have always been there[br]and we're not sure why.

0:11:48.521,0:11:55.153
And now... the outside looks [br]more and more like the images

0:11:55.153,0:11:58.139
that were contained in us [br]since the beginning.

0:12:04.619,0:12:06.562
Hi. Thank you for waiting.

0:12:07.297,0:12:09.157
We've been running [br]a little bit behind today.

0:12:09.157,0:12:10.642
Right.

0:12:10.642,0:12:12.917
As you know, we've taken a few readings

0:12:12.917,0:12:15.309
and these get sent away.

0:12:15.309,0:12:17.957
We have a look at them.[br]We meet, a group of us.

0:12:17.957,0:12:20.056
Many years of experience.

0:12:20.056,0:12:22.203
We have a look and we see what we can see.

0:12:22.203,0:12:23.870
Does that make sense?

0:12:23.870,0:12:25.065
If I ju--

0:12:25.065,0:12:28.197
If you just have a look here, really...

0:12:28.197,0:12:34.527
The system's really slow, [br]so it's a case of monitoring.

0:12:34.527,0:12:37.340
And you monitoring [br]and you just letting us know

0:12:37.340,0:12:39.340
if you notice anything unusual.

0:12:39.340,0:12:40.933
Would you be able to do this?

0:12:40.933,0:12:42.560
Hmm?

0:12:42.560,0:12:47.497
You have any questions?

0:12:54.427,0:12:55.847
Double.

0:12:57.782,0:12:59.177
Double sided.

0:12:59.334,0:13:01.771
Minds. Different paths.

0:13:01.771,0:13:05.795
One runs after sunlight,[br]one follows the rising moon.

0:13:05.795,0:13:09.547
They either congregate, [br]connect, intersect, touch,

0:13:09.547,0:13:12.423
unite at sunset for eclipses...

0:13:12.423,0:13:16.111
play and then separate [br]for long interstices.

0:13:16.111,0:13:21.134
Later, re-enacting past meetings [br]forever lost in repetition.

0:13:25.244,0:13:29.141
Ebb and flow, edging closer.

0:13:30.172,0:13:31.641
Expanding warmth.

0:13:31.641,0:13:35.068
That point just before the pressure bursts.

0:13:35.068,0:13:37.755
Capillary rush.

0:13:37.755,0:13:41.494
Tension. Resisting.

0:13:41.494,0:13:48.773
Each muscle, each limb, [br]each breath under control for now.

0:13:48.773,0:13:52.761
Questions of limitations [br]dissolve into the blur.

0:13:52.761,0:13:55.982
Eyes open, but horizons fall away.

0:13:55.982,0:13:58.261
The burn increases now.

0:13:58.261,0:14:00.121
(Shia grunts)

0:14:00.121,0:14:01.846
The pain sensors...

0:14:01.846,0:14:04.940
one of you escapes, but I pull you back.

0:14:04.940,0:14:07.605
Heh. Duality.

0:14:07.605,0:14:11.001
Existing only as a whole.

0:14:11.001,0:14:13.887
Weakened by quivering joints.

0:14:13.887,0:14:18.215
Lungs push for release,[br]a struggle to hold on.

0:14:18.215,0:14:24.302
Control surrendered, suspended in dullness.

0:14:24.302,0:14:26.945
Eyes close.

0:14:26.945,0:14:30.102
Now numb.

0:14:34.182,0:14:39.546
Running, reaching, falling, [br]skipping, turning, sliding, walking.

0:14:39.980,0:14:42.130
These are all words [br]that describe ways of moving.

0:14:42.130,0:14:45.489
Each action is packed [br]with many micro-movements.

0:14:45.489,0:14:49.042
It's hard for us to recognize [br]these small movements individually.

0:14:49.042,0:14:52.364
When describing how to walk, [br]we use the simplest terms possible

0:14:52.364,0:14:55.145
and struggle to explain all [br]the mechanics of a simple movement.

0:14:55.145,0:14:58.570
Understanding body movement [br]in the terms of everyday language

0:14:58.570,0:15:01.554
should be simple, however [br]our muscle memory takes over

0:15:01.554,0:15:03.813
for our brain and our body [br]becomes a strange system

0:15:03.813,0:15:07.476
of levers and pulleys [br]that maneuver by our command.

0:15:11.626,0:15:13.546
She sits.

0:15:15.734,0:15:17.040
I squirt toothpaste in my mouth.

0:15:17.406,0:15:18.541
I start to brush.

0:15:18.741,0:15:20.708
She's looking at me.[br]I look at her.

0:15:20.708,0:15:22.341
I keep brushing whilst looking.

0:15:22.341,0:15:24.908
I'll start looking at her.[br]She looks at me

0:15:24.908,0:15:27.732
and I continue to brush, [br]getting faster, getting harder.

0:15:27.732,0:15:30.812
I start to gag.

0:15:30.812,0:15:34.153
My eyes leak and I still look at her.

0:15:34.153,0:15:37.804
She looks at me and I keep brushing, gaggin.

0:15:37.804,0:15:40.349
I feel like I'm gonna be sick.

0:15:40.349,0:15:42.315
Am I gonna be sick?

0:15:42.315,0:15:48.423
Gagging! Paste down my face, [br]my hair, on my shirt.

0:15:48.423,0:15:54.427
Dripping, and I still look at her[br]and she looks at me.

0:15:55.355,0:15:56.580
Enough.

0:16:04.185,0:16:08.512
The sculpture, the painter,[br]the video maker,

0:16:08.512,0:16:12.335
the figure of the artist has been [br]as fetishized in Western culture

0:16:12.335,0:16:15.818
as the Hollywood actor,[br]the town drunk or the Messiah himself.

0:16:15.818,0:16:19.368
[Michael Peter's take shots],[br]attempts to reconfigure

0:16:19.368,0:16:23.355
the concept of creator or creatrix[br]by placing himself in the position

0:16:23.355,0:16:25.274
of artist as meme.

0:16:25.274,0:16:29.048
Watch, enjoy, and be one.

0:16:31.061,0:16:32.466
We are all children of the universe.

0:16:51.939,0:16:53.435
Yeah, absolutely.

0:16:54.786,0:16:57.166
I feel my absence [br]in the absence of all things.

0:17:01.461,0:17:05.584
Belief in living has been [br]contorted into this shortened life

0:17:05.584,0:17:08.166
of contempt and pre-determined in prison.

0:17:08.166,0:17:09.554
And I...

0:17:09.554,0:17:13.683
(sighs)

0:17:14.943,0:17:16.145
I feel it all collapsing.

0:17:18.306,0:17:20.838
I CAN'T FUCKING EMBRACE IT!

0:17:25.389,0:17:26.821
(sighs)

0:17:30.325,0:17:31.618
(sighs)

0:17:40.705,0:17:44.321
[It's near] and here I stand...

0:17:48.611,0:17:52.183
wasting my last moments, [br]cursing thee who impress me this

0:17:52.183,0:17:53.733
[your fate].

0:17:56.677,0:17:57.979
You give nothing.

0:17:58.213,0:18:00.279
No mercy, no empathy.

0:18:02.199,0:18:03.518
Only self-hate.

0:18:03.736,0:18:05.436
To you, I'm just a fucking plaything.

0:18:05.707,0:18:08.051
An amusement replicating the cries of man.

0:18:08.051,0:18:11.474
You replay the last moments [br]of my life over and over and over!

0:18:11.474,0:18:15.234
I'm just a fucking charade [br]suspended at the core of ridicule

0:18:15.234,0:18:19.609
and I pity for those whose end mirrors mine

0:18:19.609,0:18:21.581
and I pity myself.

0:18:21.581,0:18:24.976
(sniffles)

0:18:27.029,0:18:28.368
I'm helpless.

0:18:29.595,0:18:30.769
Thank you.

0:18:37.793,0:18:40.813
I'm tormented by the inescapable

0:18:40.813,0:18:44.686
rewinding collapse.

0:18:49.121,0:18:50.488
Don't let them see me like this.

0:18:53.673,0:18:54.995
Man is under surveillance.

0:18:56.345,0:18:57.441
Where is he going?

0:18:58.398,0:19:01.213
Almost into a state of euphoria, of relief,

0:19:01.213,0:19:03.049
as though he's happy about it.

0:19:03.049,0:19:06.081
He has to act as a looking glass[br]rather than a mirror

0:19:06.081,0:19:07.975
of social conventions.

0:19:07.975,0:19:12.101
He disintegrated perfectly,[br]but never reappeared.

0:19:12.101,0:19:15.495
He became translucent to reveal his reality.

0:19:15.495,0:19:20.108
It's impossible unless he is, [br]or was, insane.

0:19:20.108,0:19:25.470
He changed his mind.[br]You know how men are.

0:19:25.470,0:19:29.662
Perhaps it symbolizes something deep [br]in the subconscious.

0:19:30.051,0:19:37.567
(silence until 19:43)

0:19:43.796,0:19:45.739
Feeling genuinely upset.

0:19:49.974,0:19:51.983
Tears [level]. Hmm.

0:19:57.475,0:19:58.671
Shame on me.

0:20:00.382,0:20:02.827
My face is [receptical] on surface.

0:20:02.827,0:20:06.365
A surface that's throwing up [br]what's already there.

0:20:07.866,0:20:09.708
[Wet ware and ? stuff].

0:20:09.708,0:20:14.486
Confrontation is post. Preferably.

0:20:14.486,0:20:17.635
Living in [?] like over and under.

0:20:17.635,0:20:20.768
With grapple here [br]is approaching confrontation.

0:20:20.768,0:20:23.122
Or surface lump rolled out.

0:20:23.122,0:20:29.713
You go through the dump [br]to form a projectile semi-bound

0:20:29.713,0:20:31.857
like protest song collapsed.

0:20:31.857,0:20:35.329
Needs filled for no other.

0:20:36.388,0:20:38.955
Forced partly forever as long [br]as I leave you together.

0:20:42.145,0:20:43.307
Art hits.

0:20:45.367,0:20:46.693
Whatever I point at is big.

0:20:52.595,0:21:33.491
Snapped leg. Snapped leg. (until 21:35)

0:21:36.896,0:21:38.916
Chalk circle.

0:21:38.916,0:21:42.242
Another one of those days where you think,[br]"Shit, I've done nothing today."

0:21:42.242,0:21:43.416
This London Underground journey

0:21:43.416,0:21:45.841
needs no excessive [br]mental activity to perform.

0:21:46.288,0:21:48.375
I'm stuck in a strange [br]modern day meditation.

0:21:48.375,0:21:50.643
This space asks for an interruption.

0:21:50.643,0:21:53.533
When it happens, it's a moment [br]of pure panic and confusion.

0:21:53.533,0:21:55.928
All previous expectations are obliterated.

0:21:55.928,0:21:57.722
[A second velation].

0:21:57.722,0:21:59.672
The rules are being broken here.

0:21:59.672,0:22:02.432
Quickly, it passes.

0:22:02.432,0:22:05.921
I'm back in the routine.

0:22:05.921,0:22:08.954
There's an expansion [br]of discovery and limitation,

0:22:08.954,0:22:11.508
even if I'm thinking, [br]"Fuck. This is boring"

0:22:11.508,0:22:14.388
as I scribble repetitively onto the floor.

0:22:18.708,0:22:21.881
Between the visible and invisible lies [br]a glistening rectangular pane,

0:22:22.833,0:22:24.668
a transparent veil.

0:22:25.904,0:22:28.201
This thin glossy sheet of glass, [br]so innocent looking,

0:22:28.201,0:22:30.941
is the frontier between [br]the physicality of toil

0:22:30.941,0:22:33.261
and the ignorance of immateriality.

0:22:33.261,0:22:38.383
Liquid crystals oscillating between [br]a seamless fluid and solid state

0:22:38.383,0:22:41.645
produce a viscous reality [br]that's almost palpable,

0:22:41.645,0:22:44.969
almost attainable but succeeds [br]only in abstracting.

0:22:44.969,0:22:48.582
The heightened artifice [br]perpetuates [animinity],

0:22:48.582,0:22:50.905
outsourced far away.

0:22:50.905,0:22:55.376
Dead labor turns to capital[br]and power relations dissolve.

0:22:55.376,0:22:58.395
All that is solid melts into the air.

0:23:03.325,0:23:06.088
These light installations do[br]not provide an original experience.

0:23:07.581,0:23:09.548
Instead, the audience [br]will witness occurrences

0:23:09.548,0:23:11.905
they have previously encountered [br]in their everyday lives

0:23:11.905,0:23:15.036
on bedroom walls, floors, [br]and through bus windows

0:23:15.364,0:23:17.221
but may have never noticed.

0:23:18.220,0:23:20.609
Observing, recording, [br]and recreating studies of light,

0:23:21.505,0:23:23.859
this series of events are light occurrences [br]that have captured

0:23:23.859,0:23:26.443
and digitally recreated using projectors

0:23:26.443,0:23:29.076
as the technology [was staged [br]then] in this space.

0:23:29.076,0:23:32.269
Do you either go noticed or unnoticed?

0:23:37.229,0:23:41.289
What you're about to witness [br]is quite definitely horrible.

0:23:42.585,0:23:45.344
British artist [Jack Evans], [br]when he was raised in Mansfield,

0:23:45.344,0:23:50.012
[part of the midlands], is now one of the most [br]southern parts in the UK,

0:23:50.838,0:23:52.240
Brighton Beach.

0:23:52.240,0:23:55.701
And the hellish winter cold [br]laid out nothing but [rains].

0:23:55.701,0:24:00.560
His favorite pair of speedos [br]and a fucking tacky shit gold watch,

0:24:00.560,0:24:04.051
eating what I believe [br]those Brits call a [99 Flake].

0:24:04.051,0:24:07.507
His body looks glorious [br]as it shivers in the wind.

0:24:07.507,0:24:10.894
I do have to remind you, [br]especially the ladies,

0:24:10.894,0:24:13.655
it was fucking cold.

0:24:13.655,0:24:15.760
Enjoy.

0:24:20.225,0:24:22.773
Hold your breath.[br]Count to two.

0:24:24.285,0:24:26.486
Come with us in a world of pure imagination.

0:24:27.386,0:24:30.213
Take a look and you'll see [br]into our imagination.

0:24:31.553,0:24:34.278
We'll begin travelling [br]in the world of our creation.

0:24:35.567,0:24:38.030
What you'll see will have no explanation.

0:24:39.317,0:24:40.785
Look around.

0:24:40.923,0:24:43.585
There's no life to compare [br]with living with no [pixellation].

0:24:56.781,0:25:01.338
[Joe Mass] was Shia LaBeouf [br]before Shia LaBeouf was [Joe Mass].

0:25:06.492,0:25:08.378
We only got 30 seconds, [br]so I mean, I'll try his voice

0:25:08.378,0:25:10.998
but... I don't know.

0:25:11.641,0:25:13.730
Who makes that choice?[br]Who's pretending to be who?

0:25:13.730,0:25:17.219
We're pretending to talk [br]to a you that doesn't exist yet,

0:25:17.219,0:25:18.824
but what's really going on here?

0:25:18.824,0:25:22.589
I... fuck, I don't think [br]any of us understand.

0:25:22.743,0:25:24.371
Maybe you do.

0:25:25.483,0:25:26.845
There's always reflections [br]of you in the screen,

0:25:26.845,0:25:28.264
but I can't speak.[br]I'm dumb.

0:25:28.264,0:25:30.036
I'm the dumbest when Shia talks.

0:25:30.036,0:25:33.165
Fuck, 30 seconds.[br]All right.

0:25:33.303,0:25:34.740
Pressure, whatever.

0:25:35.005,0:25:36.298
Hey, mom, it's really Joe.

0:25:36.298,0:25:38.106
I bet you never thought[br]this would fucking happen, huh?

0:25:38.106,0:25:39.467
(chuckles)

0:25:43.307,0:25:45.747
Work number 24 oscillates somewhere between

0:25:45.747,0:25:47.867
a [durational] performance in live sculpture.

0:25:48.149,0:25:51.866
The work seeks to act both [br]as a social and institutional critique

0:25:51.866,0:25:55.512
of "What is an art school?"[br]presented then in a form

0:25:55.512,0:25:57.371
of a bookshop, as opposed to a library,

0:25:57.371,0:25:59.531
arguably a democratic equivalent.

0:25:59.531,0:26:01.854
The work seeks to explore [br]the currency of ideas,

0:26:01.854,0:26:04.688
how trade and exchange [br]is not only [commoditized],

0:26:04.688,0:26:07.898
but perhaps how conversation [br]is perhaps a vital component

0:26:07.898,0:26:10.626
in the flow and disruption [br]of how culture manifests.

0:26:15.366,0:26:17.890
A practice revolves around [br]questions of fact and fiction

0:26:17.890,0:26:19.840
and the blurred line that lies between.

0:26:20.690,0:26:22.657
I'm interested in how surveillance images

0:26:22.657,0:26:25.113
can be manipulated [br]and orchestrated in order to create

0:26:25.113,0:26:28.179
a particular narrative, [br]creating an unreliable narrator.

0:26:28.179,0:26:30.518
There are three parts to the work:

0:26:30.518,0:26:34.071
Footage of a factual space,[br]whereby a sequence of events

0:26:34.071,0:26:37.001
has occured, the digital [br]drawing of the space,

0:26:37.001,0:26:40.925
and a stripped-back stage [br]to its crude simplest skeletal form,

0:26:40.925,0:26:43.251
where the sequence [br]of events is re-enacted.

0:26:43.251,0:26:46.945
The stage is a factual representation [br]of a real life space

0:26:46.945,0:26:49.847
whereby every property [br]is identical in dimensions.

0:26:53.857,0:26:56.506
57,910,000.

0:26:57.618,0:26:59.951
108,200,000.

0:27:00.471,0:27:02.940
149,600,000.

0:27:02.940,0:27:06.471
227,940,000.

0:27:06.471,0:27:10.201
