- W1514447974 abstract "This project aims to engage the strategic concealment of appropriation strategies within aresponsive cross-media based art practice. Its purpose is to investigate the use and effect ofappropriation strategies using a range of media to produce a series of installed environments. Thecumulative effect of the work aims to submerge the audience into an experience of referentialexcess. This overload suggests either a resignation into that excess or a potential untangling of anidiosyncratic authorial system.The research is motivated by questioning and reflecting on my own mediality, a term definedhere as the perceived reality that one is influenced by via the media, and an ongoing interest inthe systems that enable the distribution, control, flow and ownership of ideas and imagery inmedia saturated environments. These systems are: methods and forms of media transmission andreception such as television, radio, internet, and distributed media such as films and music, andthe resulting protocols or rules that sit alongside these transmission forms such as copyright,authorship, ownership and re-numeration. The work addresses both the personal, internalconcerns of myself as author and the disconnected, autonomous qualities of the resultant work toreflect on larger observations about media saturated culture. It articulates a studio languagedesigned to straddle the gulf between these two dynamics. The research output consists predominantly of installation environments comprising video,projection, sound, objects and images connected by series of static imagery. These explore theoccurrence of an appropriation of the act of appropriation itself - a loop in space and time. This isachieved by capturing, observing, altering and re-transmitting the glimmers of this occurrenceback into the medial system. This looping is the both the key strategic device and conceptualpremise underlying the research. It uses both local and global sources of data, and mixes ofinformation that include personal anecdotes, cliches and grand narratives, drawn from myobservation of and intrigue with sub-cultures that can be loosely classified as taking a D.I.Y. or'Do It Yourself'' approach. These include Software and Hardware Hacking, Noise Music, HeavyMetal and Car Customisation.While appropriation is a part of all cultural development since the beginning of time, the projectextends the discussion of appropriation in post-modern art practice. The defining period ofappropriation art is seen by many as the post-Pop period of the late 1970's in the work of artistssuch as Richard Prince, Sherrie Levine and Cindy Sherman. These artists use appropriation asboth a direct strategy, and as a totalising subject matter of their work. My work extends a currentdialogue surrounding appropriation strategies, with specific reference to the writings of PaulTaylor, Sean Lowry and Brogan Bunt, who posit a shift from direct, strategic appropriationstrategies to a more innate, almost default presence of an appropriative urge operating incontemporary art production. This is considered in the light of works by Banks Violette,Takeshi Murata and Ondrej Brody & Kristofer Paetau, who all operate from a position of asubliminal appropriative urge or logic in their work. My project adds another discursive node tothis field by making work that uses appropriation to loop and synthesise ideas, objects and images into installation environments. It synthesizes the experiential residues of personalencounters with mediated signals, contains them within new cultural statements and re-transmitsthem into the passing flow of time.Through the application of various appropriative strategies including sampling, remixing, collageand synthesis, the project generates new knowledge about cultural appropriation. It achieves thisby creating a looping, referential system of production that operates as a reference-machine, acascading system that creates overloaded medial transmissions. These transmissions submergethe audience into sensorially excessive installed environments that encourage contemplationabout the role and place media occupies in our lives." @default.
