Between Stations. 2007.

The public airways are mapped almost entirely to the mandates of consumer demographics, psychographics and other methods of locating, courting and creating compliant consumers and citizens. This sad context provides an aesthetic space where the mash-up and obliteration of those tired fictitious sites of meaning becomes a satisfying experience.

Between Stations profiles varied U.S. cultures as competing sectors of the consciousness industry represents and attempts to document the decomposition of those seemingly stable identities while moving at high velocity toward utter decay and slippage into forbidden, unclaimed and contested spaces.

These recordings were made in the southeast of the United States along Interstate 95 from Virginia to North Carolina. The artist’s automobile acted as crude mixing instrument as it was driven recklessly between competing frequencies sliding in and out of coherence and exploring the spaces between stations, colonized electromagnetic frequencies and codified identities.
