----------empyre- soft-skinned space----------------------
Thanks Garrett,
Ok, for my part:
I'm trying to create landscapes of the imagination - the geography of mental
space. Although there is a profound engagement specific places when I'm out
shooting material but during the editing process the filmed material becomes
reformed into something reflective of my own inner geography.

Yes gazing through technology is certainly an aspect of some of my works this
probably creeps in from my reading around the New Aesthetic but the goals
aren't the same. There is a simpler level/theme (even 'site') that links the
works however, networks. Both Best of Luck with the Wall (variant) and
Sculptures for Distant Places both use networks to see spaces in impossible
ways. The former work shifts me more firmly into film because it's a
collaborative work and Frédérique's main medium is film.
We've both (Frédérique and myself) being talking about
deterritorialisation/reterritorialisation (sticking more closely with Deleuze's
spelling with an s) since it's been mentioned a few times now - trying to
unpack a little more how we feel Best of Luck with the Wall (variant)
deterritorialises a space. For us I guess this occurs on two levels;
political, how politics is turing the US/Mexico border into a sort of no-mans
land, and technological, how the use of technology/seeing through technology
transforms the territory/space into something other than geography. We are not
sure what that 'other' is precisely but its scale (rapidly approaching actual
scale) makes us think of Alfred Korzybski's map-territory relation and Borges
short story On Exactitude in Science.
There seem to be aspects of deterritorialisation/reterritorialisation in all
the works by the artist's this week (to greater and lesser degrees) - would be
useful if you could all unpack this for the list.

Yes, of course! That is why your name was familiar. I can see now how Best of
Luck with the Wall (variant) ties in with your installation at Stuttgarter
Filmwinter. I can see now that the unrelenting gaze of the surveillance camera
or drone is something you're very interested in, as well as the potential for
subverting those machines.
Best Wishes,
Toby
