This is a Dada poetry reading I did. The idea of autonomy when considering the 'sign' as suggested by Saussure interested me greatly. I was concerned with the idea that when one rejects their sociol roles in a modern society, what happens to the postmodern idea of self? Can this anti-postmodern sense of identity survive in a capitalist environment? Nontheless, when rejecting this idea of postmodern identity, I felt one should reject all senses of social constructions, language become fallable and so does the concept of fashion. When one rejects all these constructed ideas, I found that perhaps the human is always concerned with the libidal materialisations of the mind (a la Jung and Freud) and it becomes something quite celestial and all powerful when viewed pragmatically. I showed this video in a solo show in my home town and was met with applause and very positive reviews in Frieze magazine. Soon afterwards I was awarded a grant for being one of the leading film artists in the country.

  • dada was a cultural movement, it's not a faith, ideology or way of doing things, in fact these are what dadaists sought to question and deconstruct. In the age we live in, there are no art movements, only individuals and collections of individuals and their respective memeplexes. subscribing to a memeplex (and a previous one) is pretty modernist, and you seem to be coming from a postmodern perspective.

    I really love what you're doing but you don't need to label yourself.
