2. Feed

   Our deeply ingrained need to trust language enables Feed to generate an endless simulacrum of social commentary cum mythopoeic narrative spontaneously from largely random associations of charged words. It presents cultural observation through the blind eye of chance. The blank passing moment becomes the creator of mythos. It allows us the opportunity to turn ambiguity into poetry, absurdity into satire, unexpected fortuitous alignments into insight. Feed chronicles the mechanisms of the chronicle rather than its subjects. It removes “realism” from the equation, flirting with the meaningless and parading arbitrary associations before the reader under the banners of archetype and metaphor. Feed historicizes, editorializes, moralizes, sings, dances, and wears funny hats, all in the name of “analyzing” its own inventions.

5. Monoclonal Microphone: The Movie

   A looping video (c. 20 mins – time could be adjusted) that both explores the world of “Monoclonal Microphone” and also reveals certain processes from its open-ended manufacture/generation. The video zooms in and out of a large field of generated poems; shows the underlying program running (generating verses and searching for them with internet search); and provides some expository captioning for the project.
