The development of technological tools has evolved to extend the sensory capabilities of our nervous systems with the drive to glean meaning and significance from the world we inhabit. These are the central interface in the digitally enabled world for the encoding of symbols into culture. Cybernetic technology operating in synchrony with our nervous systems is the alternative life for a disoriented humanity, electronics stretching the nervous system into environment.

The friction between these worlds is the cause of dislocation from corporeality, causing a critical rupture in the link between body, mind and environment.

The development of technological tools has evolved to extend the sensory capabilities of our nervous systems with the drive to glean meaning and significance from the world we inhabit. These are the central interface in the digitally enabled world for the encoding of symbols into culture. Cybernetic technology operating in synchrony with our nervous systems is the alternative life for a disoriented humanity, electronics stretching the nervous system into environment.

The friction between these worlds is the cause of dislocation from corporeality, causing a critical rupture in the link between body, mind and environment. Encoding Reality is a series of films that investigates these relationships. In Deaths Dream presents non-human beings as they attempt to understand the relevance of the human condition through magick ritual, performance and remnants of emotional bondage that float throughout the data clouds. This being ultimately questions whether our consciousness can mesh with the machinic.
