Artist's Statement

Work of Meta-Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction

The mind creates, the chaos permeates. In the synaptic artifice, art objects are reproductions of the imaginations of the mind -- a mind that uses the chaos as an organism to represent ideas, patterns, and emotions. With the rationalization of the electronic environment, the mind is approaching a point where it will be free from the chaos to consume immersions into the parameters of the delphic artifice. Work of Meta-Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction contains 10 minimal dhtml engines (also refered to as "clipper chips") that enable the user to make absurd audio/visual compositions.

  • measuring chains, constructing realities
  • putting into place forms
  • a matrix of illusion and disillusion
  • a strange attracting force
  • so that a seduced reality will be able to spontaneously feed on it

Micah Walter's work investigates the nuances of surveilance cameras through the use of stopframe motion and close-ups which emphasize the Mechanical nature of digital media. Walter explores abstract and inorganic scenery as motifs to describe the idea of imaginary artifice. Using deviant loops, non-linear narratives, and allegorical images as patterns, Walter creates meditative environments which suggest the expansion of culture.

Of course none of the above is true. This was generated automatically for me by a site called "Garbage In, Garbage Out." -- Although, it is impressive how accurate the garbage out actually is!
