Flowing Fear
Description
Inspiration
On the train way back from Einhoven to Rotterdam. Through the old train window covered with dust, I saw the landscape and train track moving horizontally with high speed. Every thing outside the window was blury, unclear and impossible to catch any memorable detail. I am in a passive position again: only could sit and watch. At that moment a certain type of fear is occupying me, this emotion without clear source and also hard to defined. “the fear is more terrible when it is diffuse, dispersed, not very clear; when it floats freely elsewhere, without bonds, anchors, home or a clear cause” (Zygmunt Bauman) I realized that is what we experienced every day. Imagine the train window is the cybernetic interface; the moving landscape I saw through the window is the overflowed modulated data; the viewer is “the man in control” (Gilles Deleuze) present with data and code.
Derivative fear
key words : unstable, news, speed, flowing data .
Half transparent looping data of comments and timestamps from the “fear” page of wikipedia cover on top of the video of moving lanscape took through the train window as background. Combined with soundtrack of randomly jumped BBC updating news.
Fear&Present
Key words: virturl indentity, present, erase and appears, unstable and transient.
Computer generated speech reading the comment and timestamps from the wikipidia Mixed with the soundtrack of BBC news. together as a Chaotic sound background, combined with overflowed black color text from the feed overlaying on top of each other as animated background enable to show the white silhoustte of the human portrait which function as buttons link to next page. The last page start with one black silhoustte portrait. Click on the “switch” buttom. The black silhoustte start to be erased by the text of the data while the other one gradually appears.
