    After the rain

    No full text
    From footage originally shot at the Grotto di Catullo (Italy) after a torrential downpour Dyson and Trayner overlay an exploration of these Roman ruins with a burgeoning soundscape of initially subtle birdcalls that rhythmically pulse and build through digital manipulation, eventually creating dissonance and disharmony, echoing the contradictory relationship humans have had historically with their environment. Referencing the Romantic history of the modern repurposing of antiquity and nature as an ideological prop and the tradition of the sublime, the artists invite the viewer to consider the absurdity of such concepts in the face of ecological collapse.After the Rain responds to the question of the exhibition by positing the end of all human life where all our metaphysical contemplation has been rendered irrelevant by our inability to live with ourselves, and our world.<br/

    V.D.M.I.Æ. (v3.2)

    No full text
    In a collaboration between Mutton Fist Press and Five Years Jonathan Trayner will be presenting the first act of his grand opera for robots – V.D.M.I.Æ. – alongside a series of linocut illustrations from the libretto.Based on the 1925 play Thomas Münzer by the German playwright Berta Lask this piece is a mock-heroic attempt to create a voice for the voiceless machines, a pathetic presage of the future of automatic poetry. The original play was written as a piece of pedagogic theatre to instil communist ideas in the German proletariat. It is the story of the radical German preacher Thomas Müntzer, a utopian and proto-communist that was one of the leaders of the peasants’ during the German Peasants’ War of 1525. The text has been ‘written’ by taking Lask’s script, scanning it, running the scan through first text recognition software, then an automatic translator. This was then passed uncorrected through text-to-speak software to create the voice that was then turned into song. The glitches and errors create an accidental poetry that slips in and out of meaning and demonstrates the failure of communication that is at the heart of the tragedy of the human condition.The accompanying prints deliberately mimic the style of the early German pamphlets that were the driving force in the dissemination of the Reformation and the catalyst for the Peasants’ War. The title of both of these works; V.D.M.I.Æ. stands for Verbum Dominum Manet in Æternum – The Word of the Lord Endures Forever – the slogan that Müntzer carried on his banner. The use here plays with the failure of meaning and the corruptibility of the text that the singing sculptures highlight
