Death Knights in Slow Motion
10 performers outfitted in medieval/space/fantasy armor re-create Bruce Nauman’s 1973 work “Tony Sinking into the Floor, Face Up and Face Down”. Performed in slow motion and combined with movements based on computer game death animations, this piece is accompanied by a high volume binaural beats reputed to induce out of body experiences.Condon has a history of work involving computer game modification, and performance events with medieval re-enactment and fantasy live action role playing games.
In part two, an impressionistic montage of iPhone snapshots taken among those living, slow-mo dead.
