The title of the piece, just decided upon is “Deep Time Hybrid (Lichen meets) ” which basically sums up my underlying intentions and the context behind. Largely drawing on posthuman theories and focusing on life on Earth as, not being centred around human activity, but instead a multifaceted assemblage of human and non-human elements meeting each other within a complex generative process.

The video is a result of various physical and technological steps: e.g a performance, editing, layering, superimposing and filtering. The deterioration of the image through the various processes is intentional and alludes to the materiality of the pixelated digital image and emphasises a sense of decay through duration.
