Hegemony Of Screensavers (Toubab with iPhone 5s)

3d

A randomized composition of digital artifacts. Scans of natural stone and found objects. Inefficient GLSL. Screensaver trails. Nonlinear dynamics with Lorenz and Wang-Sun attractors. Distilled hours, days and years.

Narrative Statement
Suspended in a deep ambivalence. Thulien Pink and Rose Gold. The Earth is red in Senegal. I scanned volcanic outcrops along the coast, clambering about in non-deterministic orbits with a Nikon. A local man arrived and earnestly explained how the rock had a face and it held the spirits of their ancestors. His pained expression made it clear – I was violating the ancestral stone with my camera. I was that plundering colonialist. My first mobile phone was expensive for 1999, around $350. I didn’t need it, I just wanted it. I still have it. These and other artifacts pile up in small collections. Carmine Red, Grey and Platinum.
