Nancy Baker Cahill inarticulate conscious (2024) Animated Video, Digital Sculpture 00:02:00
Inspired by Gene Youngblood’s Expanded Cinema, this experimental video engages the idea of synesthetic cinema, described as “the only aesthetic language suited to the post-industrial, post-literate, man-made environment, with its multidimensional, simul-sensory network of information sources.” The work includes text from a specific passage that resonated with Baker Cahill, as it relates to the neoliberal project of auto-exploitation and the overwhelming noise of being extremely online, embedding Youngblood’s critique of the “merchants of mannerisms.”
Collector will receive 4K versions of the work in H264 and H265, stored using IPFS through NFT.Storage. Artist will provide links upon sale.
