Birefringent liquid crystals, fiber-optic ontologies, data network animism and long live the new flesh. (Goldsmiths BA Fine Art Degree Show, 2015)
Polarised lenses reveal birefringent liquids and crystals and semi-crystalline liquids as the birefringence in liquid crystal screens and stress marks in new flesh and plastic. Fiber-optic rods carry the light of sea-shore sigil ceremonies above international data hubs through sand and rocks from the same networked shores, charged with animist tendencies and electro-magnetic data leakage. Surrounding sounds of dark ambient drones and brainwave entertainment and mashed up feedback loops modulate and oscillate around the space and flicker the cathode rays of re-purposed e-waste. No input floor.
