An Evening with CAMP

May 15, 2023 - May 16, 2023
MoMA, NYC

This artist talk accompanies Modern Mondays and Signals: How Video Transformed the World.
Organised by Stuart Comer, Michelle Kuo and Rattanamol SIngh Johal.

The evening was about video.
A form of video that is all around us. And a series of positions around it. That present some alternatives to what a friend of ours recently called the: "the loneliness of being alone with Big Brother". That means, just you and the Panopticon. You and the Society of Control. You and Surveillance Capitalism.

So, the idea is to prevent some of these analytical and literary concepts of surveillance and control from becoming too dominant in our heads and bodies -
To prevent them from becoming… self-fulfilling prophecies.
Let's begin with some alternatives to Big Brother...
