Über Enkidu rankX

Franco-German media artist Enkidu rankX [ınˈkiːdu ræŋk eks] was born 1972 in Saarbrücken / Germany. After his studies in Belgium he settled down in Berlin in 1996 where he is working and living up to this day. His work is comprised of video-art, glitch-art, installations and interaction with dance and theatre. “My art deals with issues such as relational miscommunication, the effect of technology on the human condition and the loss of identity that comes with the advent of virtualization an simulation.”

„140 characters, that is 140 bytes, makes 1120 bits. In a matrix, that would mean a field of 33 by 34 dots. But where is the meaning in this?“

DOGS II

the „DOGS“ series II: „Whose side are you on?“

Whose side are you on? from Enkidu rankX on Vimeo.

thnx to Yola 2.
Parental guidance suggested!

„Whose side are you on?“ supposes a couple having sex, deeply disliking each other. Both have grown tired of their respective attitudes towards their relationship and deeply distrust one another. But subsequently, they fail in telling the other about their feelings and needs and stay frozen in a state of hate and disgust.

It is the second film of a series specially dealing in relational miscommunication called “DOGS”. Part one of the series is called “Her Dog” and is available on this site.

The film sample is taken from Larry Cohen 1972 Blaxploitation milestone Black Caesar starring Fred Williamson and Gloria Hendry. I filmed it off a monitor, then re-treated it in PureData [pd] and GEM.

The Song “Whose side are you on?” by MK_ultra is featuring Yola Icho as “her” and Enkidu rankX as “him”.

Art is a weapon

wash your karma

Art is a weapon,

a weapon for creating comfort,

or tearing down the walls of acquired habits,

it is the weapon we use in a war WITH the society.

Some spam poetry

found that my comment board today:

Sound Absolutely,without display there repeat estate mark bit roof rapidly – attack attack

city view happen income cry great mark should explore necessary ignore – if people produce means

press sorry tape success secure – much market idea fail her night much yesterday

break thought human fall – competition interview limit battle general

can true means few charge believe back society suggest member

knowledge give represent channel twice important exist lip previously

various remember walk display – severe yet enjoy again hair

memory nobody answer loss floor contribute

It’s spam – of course, but isn’t that beautiful?

Look, there is a lot more here: http://www.spampoetry.org/
