I AM YOUR ERROR MESSAGE

A multimedia live performance that has been realized six times at different venues across the UK and the USA. It also exists in gallery installation format, which has been continuously exhibited. It consists of a video projection alongside a costumed performer interacting physically and engaging in dialogue with the on-screen voices and images and sculptural installation materials.

In this work experimental speculative fiction writing is combined with experimental video and sound. It explores alternative ways to articulate the condition of contemporary subjectivity in which software, and machine generated algorithms influence the way we think about value. It uses cryptic parody and develops new techniques of visual as well as verbal critique to illuminate ways in which ideology is hidden within architecture of our everyday interface with computers - particularly in the act of buying, and the search for ‘wellness’.
