»Ist möglicherweise Kunst« – Audio Works Supported by the Foundation Rhineland-Palatinate for Culture

Ist möglicherweise Kunst (Is Possibly Art, 2021) is an extension of the It's Complicated series (2019). Audio works, for which the 11 images are transcribed using Image-To-Speech recognition. The elaboration, supported by the Foundation Rhineland-Palatinate for Culture and the Cultural Department of the Ministry of Science, Further Education and Culture, completes the cycle of works and is part of an expanded, cross-media exhibition concept. See all images and listen to all audio works here.

The images in It‘s Complicated are long exposures that ­capture the process of scrolling through newsfeeds of ­social media platforms. Texts, languages, videos and ­pictures, ­insignificant posts and false statements blend and blur with facts, ­meaningfulness and relevant topics. ­Contrasting ­informations from overlapping posts which clearly – not only in the final images – must be properly assigned and ­differentiated from one another.
