Abstract

For select important things (2022 - ongoing), I have created my own knowledge system to navigate the shifting landscape of meaning and meaning-making in the 21st century. This knowledge system, a collection of video fragments that combine stock footage with original spoken texts, contrasts my deeply subjective understanding of the world with images of its generalities. Through a series of installations for online and physical sites, the project considers increasingly fraught questions about how humans make knowledge and how that knowledge, in turn, (re)makes the world. Each iteration of select important things configures and reconfigures the knowledge system videos, organising them with systems and intentions that are obscured from the audience. The videos create ever changing narratives as they interweave personal representations with those provided by search algorithms and free video libraries. Here, the videos are presented first as a full set and then in a series of arrangements that begin the process of coding and classifying the videos into a knowledge system that is both arbitrary and intentional.
