My weeds are opportunity, Tony Orrico, 2020
Sound design for Orrico’s single channel video work.
“Devised with the intent for dialogue, overlap and exchange, artists & allies is not a singular position, but presents a diverse assemble of style and substance from artists with unique sensibilities, and doubles as a snapshot and overview of our program and entry point to many of its strongest voices.”

I’m ashamed that my reputation has not yet disappeared
After all this dusty work practicing Zen and studying dao.
Ryōzen’s true dharma has been swept from the earth,
extinguished.
A moment of inattention and the demon king is a hundred
feet tall.
—Ikkyu (1394-1481)
Sometimes I sit quietly,
Listening to the sound of falling leaves.
Peaceful indeed is the life of a monk,
Cut off from all worldly matters.
Then why do I shed these tears?
I’m so aware
That it’s all unreal:
One by one, the things
Of this world pass on.
But why do I still grieve
—Ryōkan (1758-1831)
Chronotectonics, Alien Processes: Reproduction and Time, 2020
Lecture and associated essay presented at the Alien Processes: Reproduction and Time conference in New York. Hosted by the New Centre of Research & Pracice, the Centre for Transformative Media, and the New School. Program notes:
“The intensifying intimacy between humans and technology generates “de-naturalized” relations of body, cognition and time. This bodily experience of alienation is not solely technological, but also social. While we can try to escape denaturalization and alienation, we can also consider them as autonomous processes of production and reproduction.
“Today, predictive processing determines how control is produced and reproduced technically, whether in drone warfare, high-speed trading, computerized borders, or facial recognition technologies. As attention-management, statistical parameters and machine learning emerge as nonlinear instruments, biology is no longer describable under the strict terms of biopower.”
