SHOW: Lecture!

Notes: We approach Lake Michigan as a material. Information is made urgent with bodily risk: we use ingestion as visceral knowledge, as valuable as written information. The lake goes through our bodies, into Kalamazoo water reclamation facility, to the Kalamazoo River, and back to the Lake. We have been to all of these places and feel as nomadic as a raindrop from the lake. Displacement, Re-collection, etc.
Comments: "These poetic installations are separate from your research." Our response: our work seeks to provoke curiosity. Just as a Wallmart shopper may not consider an object's production, a viewer may not fully investigate the larger life of an installation. We hope all people consider context and history in any situation.
