Knowing The Unknown
Knowing The Unknown
This art we all anticipate and that yet remains forever unknown to us is not easy to define and it would be antithetical to our artistic practice to try and categorize it or to pretend that by looking into some virtually constructed crystal ball that it will somehow soon reveal itself to us especially since this unknown art is actually with us today even though we choose not to see it or when we do see it and capture it we don't know what it is and so become antagonistic to it which makes it difficult for us to apprehend it as a part of our lives or life style practice the thing we do when we do our thing which is not so much a thing as it is an operation a way of seeing that captures the process of "being becoming something else" or if not something else then something other if only we could get in touch with it and feel it for what it is so that we might fully and unconditionally or you could say "superemotionally" embed ourselves in it while IT embeds itself in us producing the perfect feedback loop or proactively managed ellipsis of uncertainty that defers all possibility of the future in a NOW practice happening in REAL-TIME while automatically un-writing itself in a programmatic narrative environment that records our work process for us and finds us behaving in an experientially designed storyworld that is maximally coded with a new media language whose ultimate manifestation is something along the lines of digital thoughtography or interactive cinescripture all the time hoping for that forever gushing organic paradise of fleshy things that fills all open orifices with the promise of youth!
