“…we must elaborate a concept of the contingency of laws that is fundamentally distinct from the concept of chance.” Meillassoux (After Finitude. 2008. p.100)
“Kontaktschmelze (contact fusion) is the first work using our concept of the ‘boolean camera’. To make use of 3d cg space in a uniquely digital way, space is not cut by a projection of a plane onto a 2d screen anymore: instead, we ‘look’ through the cutting shape of a 3d object to realise the shape of another.
It also employs a remix concept that could be called ‘database modeling’: no modeling has been done, all 3d objects have been downloaded from free resources on the web.”
“Each day in 2009, I asked every person with whom I had a meaningful encounter to submit a record of this meeting through an online survey. These reports form the heart of the 2009 Annual Report. From parents to old friends, to people I met for the first time, to my dentist… any time I felt that someone had discerned enough of my personality and activities, they were given a card with a URL and unique number to record their experience.”
