Casey Killoran Performs »Textfetzen« at Picture Theory
September 7, 2024 at ‘Picture Theory,’ 548 W28 Street #238, New York.
Picture Theory for the closing event of the exhibition »Elias Wessel: It’s Complicated.«
Here I perform a dadaist reading from Elias Wessel’s »Textfetzen. It’s Complicated: Texts From an Anti/Social Network 2019–2021. Is Possibly Art« (Kulturverlag Kadmos, 2022).
It’s Complicated is an inspection of media algorithms and our relationships with the seemingly irresistible nature of social media. Wessel documents the real-life scrolling of social media users by utilizing a long-exposure that culminates in abstract compositions. These photographs serve as reflections and metaphors to the indistinct boundaries between man and machine–inviting viewers to rethink digital media and consider the relativistic, incomplete, and fragmented worldview we consume daily. Artificial Intelligence becomes a focal point with the visual-to-text recognition “poems” (Is Possibly Art; Textfetzen), accompanying each photograph. The artist seeks to visualize questions such as “How does digital space react to analog space?” or “How can we find clear meaning in the mass of information noise, without a discernible, trusted source?”
The performance was followed by an artist conversation between Elias Wessel and Antonis Pittas.
