Single channel video with audio (05:00)

This performance is set in an undetermined future-time where new rituals have been created in celebration of food, shelter and tools. Enacted atop mountainous terrain and within industrial waste sites, Muscle, Bone & Sinew are accompanied by their familiar, an artificial intelligence who poetically recites existential thoughts of existence, survival and struggle. This work is a symbol for abundance, engaging a deep-time practice of continual gratitude for sustainable resources and reverence for the technology of more than human kinships.
