This episode comes on the heels of the launch of a new work, LOREM IPSUM VARIORUM, currently on view at Palazzo Citterio in Milan, presented in collaboration with Italy’s National Museum of Digital Art and the historic Grande Brera. (Talk about past meets future!) Beginning with the strange pseudo-Latin of Lorem Ipsum -- placeholder text that derives obliquely from the corrupted remains of an ancient text by Cicero -- I reflect on language as visual and material form, my lifelong fascination with typography and graphic design, and this series of “impossible translations” from an unstable source. I also share some impressions from my travels through Milan and Venice, from encountering Hito Steyerl’s work at Fondazione Prada Osservatorio to listening my way through the Holy See Pavilion’s Mystical Garden at the Venice Biennale. The episode culminates with the original soundtrack for LOREM IPSUM VARIORUM, created with my longtime creative partner Kris Bones: a sonic variation on the work’s ongoing conversation between ancient and synthetic, text and image, signal and noise, translation and mistranslation.
