simple actions-sensory satisfactions in the unrest
at Feltspace ARI, SA
Seeking composure in the acceleration of the technological world, I must rely on my ability to receive the overwhelming influx of information and order it, to detect unexpected fits and simple satisfactions that vibrate amidst the complexity.
When being exposed to simple situations that see objects combined in harmonious configurations that don’t concede to the contexts that our past would place them in, our expectations are challenged about how things relate to one another and we are forced to restructure our understandings.
‘Simple actions/sensory satisfactions in the unrest’ employs discreet coincidences of ‘the fit’ and pleasing points of interconnectedness, by fabricating them into simplified physical entities, offering totems to hold onto, amusingly vibrating through a dynamic exchange of order and chaos.
it's getting fast out (t)here the speed of receiving it's perpetually accelerating
our relationships to our realities may appear to be changing
physically
lo sing
endless influxes of data to process generating and generating
it may confuse it may
displace
touch
environments are shifting form
and have been
shifting, fitting, shifting
(but always)
(but always)
the energy remains constant
in a constant state of satisfying tessellation
everything moving to fit with the last point of movement
constantly vibrating
fitting, shifting, fitting elsewhere
things that seemingly clash things from seemingly different pockets
shift reconfigure realign into fits
unexpected ones satisfyingly. frenziedly. ordered
without being restrained without being confined
my hands made these
machines
a machine could have made them too
much like I could have been the one to turn
the wheels that move them
but
our positions are not final
we're all just flawed cogs, rattling through this feverish system
