Et Cetera
Abstract
Et Cetera is woven together with five works that are essentially five bodies of writings as digital poetry -- a poetic practice that is made possible by digital media and technology in which aesthetic possibilities are extended through the semantic impact of data, alphabets, visuals, sound, etc. Interlaced by multimedial meaning-making, Et Cetera re(produces) installations that are engineered with algorithmic materials utilizing real-time data feeds, animated letterforms, performative instructions and sensory synthesis.
Exploring different scenarios of human-machine coupling that consequently lead to multifarious illegibilities, Et Cetera amplifies the noise of information overflow in the concurrent mediascape with its rhizomatic networks largely beyond human conscious apprehension. On the B-side, Et Cetera is also involved with writing about the alphabetic writing apparatus, the role of artist as author as human-machine-centaur and networked subjectivity.
