Send Me

1997, Video, 3:35 (Colour, Stereo)

by Pixel Post, Don Rice

This multimedia experiment reworks the surrealist game of “Exquisite Corpse”. This reworking adds the program Photoshop, video editing, audio collage and electronic mail to the mix. Each collaborator passed an electronic image file to the next after having incorporated their changes via Photoshop. The audio scape and video mix bring the game to life as subtle images onto one another. Send Me backgrounds the maleability of the image in our digital age, pointing to complex issues of authorship and originality.
