[syndicate] Studies in the catastrophic (fwd)

(apologies for the quantity of these postings; the work comes out of the 
virtual environments lab stuff I did this summer, as well as the BIOS 
conference at WVU last week)



Studies in the catastrophic


Based on the previous video:

1. http://www.asondheim.org/intersections.mp4

Negative echo which reveals the core/confinement aspect of movement;
everything else is cauterized; there is considerable movement in the
upper left quadrant, the mitigation of the body.

2. http://www.asondheim.org/prosmapping.mp4

And of course the body with identical armature placed among the wings.

There are different archaeological modalities at stake: identity and
equivalence/comparison - the latter applicable with intersection, and
the former with the indexical-ikonic human figure.

Everything is within the register of the digital. The figures shudder.
