THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS (Day 68, 10 May 2012) - A4 print trimmed to edge (free hand-out)
Data Pool 3
Experimental text work from the same source of the Leveson Enquiry witness transcripts - continuing the serial work: Data Pool 3 (end-game) as an enquiry reversing the usual technological teleology. The double projection plays the text at odds with any meaning that may be had, as they slip out of synch, until chance brings them to re-align again, briefly, before stuttering on. The work reflects what actually occurred in the Leveson Enquiry, with slips in language attempted to be used in very devious ways to refute the claims being made. Several people went to jail and lost their jobs. Unfortunately, any further enquiry was quashed by the Conservatives.
