SYSTEMATICS OF THE STAGED

2019

​

Systematics of the Staged presents a production cycle manifesting within a curated landscape. It examines the corporation’s effect on evolutionary advances and declines, whilst identifying frameworks used to construct a seamless façade consistently exhibited to the individual.

​

The pre-determined environment is populated with opaque backdrops, flawless textures, satisfying colour palettes and mathematically perfected lighting in an effort to illustrate a convincing arrangement. Destructive production lines adhering to the projected demands of mass-consumption are masked through the use of carefully calculated simulation, staged moving image and edited sound. The individual is considered a performer within the system; directed, engineered and remodelled to exist in its most universal, efficient and simplified form.

 

Systematic of the Staged was created during a month-long digital residency with Welcome to my Homepage in association with The Museum of Human Achievement, Austin, Texas.
