Sounds Of Protest – A Observation Of A Phenomenon
Engaging with a space seething with tension, the video poem is an experiment at voyeuristic observation of events as they are executed and perceived in tempered time, where an emphasis on temporality versus spaciality takes precedence. One wonders if the act of observing is a way of altering that which is being observed; and as an inquisitive mind I find that true separation from that which is observed is near impossible. How does the event relate to my psychic defenses?
These sounds of muffled sloganeering and sirens embody the inaudibility of mysteries wedged between the normal decibels our ears are designed to perceive. This is a metaphor positing that more often the screams of the disparate are seldom heard in their true tone of rage, but filtered by separation of forces comprised of those in power and those confronting power.
