“The video surfs on the interface between sense/nonsense. The point of departure is the space between an unsynchronized signal. From here it produces itself through the mirror effect of self-reflection. The ‘Deadline’ takes its last breath, which is just enough for the transit of a floating significant. Through their conscious use, the ‘void’ of such phenomena as drop-outs and misguided chromonance signals suddenly turns into an image ‘texture’ that constitutes meaning. Out of the hiss of false information – universally known effects – spaces and landscapes of a dark, novel beauty take shape. I will make a poem of pure nothing.”
– David Larcher
