The New Anxiety
​
​
​
The 300+ year technologies built to capture, understand and connect the world - from maps through geostationary satellites to contemporary algorithms and big data collection - have been exposed as weapons-grade systems that pluralise reality and destabilise the present. How does living in this new anxious world feel, and how deep do these systems take root?
Conversation Piece (performed/adapted by SHOAL)
Luke Nickel (2013/2021), 60'
"Conversation Piece is a live panel discussion/performance for four ad-hoc participants (no preparation necessary) which investigates natural vs. arbitrary proportion in spoken conversation, surveillance, monitoring, and how these factors relate to meaning-making and social dominance.
This piece was made in 2013 (before Zoom times) and has been resurrected by SHOAL and VIRTUALLYREALITY in a new online version." (Luke Nickel)
