A Hole in the Head—Brain Amplifications and Herniated Texts

1993
Christof Migone
A collection of portraits for those with dysfunctional attention spans and disrespect for proper microphone techniques. Each portrait flirts with the one-minute mark and acts as an incision into the broadcast space. All portraits have textual origins. Acting as their interpreter, the artist seeks to create a territory in permanent flux, with intersections showered by collisions. An exploration of sound and language in its infinite detail, from saliva contortions to alphabetical sonorities to sporadic humming.
