Degradation & Reconstitution
2023
Video, audiovisual system
8min 50sec
The audiovisual live performance system deconstructs short films from social media platforms, shedding light on society's addiction to fragmented information. Inspired by Marshall McLuhan's theory that "The medium is the message," the project explores how new mediums reshape content from previous ones. By transforming these fragmented mediums into sound art, the artist offers a reflection on the media-driven environment. Through performance and improvisation, the project initiates a dialogue with the phenomenon, inviting audiences to contemplate the impact of media on our perception and experience.
