re:self->com

a show regarding self->re:construction and organised divergence

“->” as implication, or input, or insertion, or function.

Bouncing between self->re:fracture to self->production through self chatter, self image and routing the Flow.

Re.con.position of oneself by conning one.self. 

Self->puppetry. With real, actual, puppets.

Can I be manipulated when I know I’m being manipulated by my:self?

Divergent thinking, fuzzy logic, pattern matching, multiple signals, loosing track.

In a world of paper re.representation, body re.reflection and video re.framing feedback.

Recursively echoing to the nth degree. Interconnected self similarity.

A complex re.combination, onto, into, through each other

a mash up

a self->made mash up

a mash up of the self

Saying no to convergence for convergence’s sake. An exercise in divergence.

What can be trusted as the “real” (self)->image?

how might one produce one->self
