Isarithm
Artist’s Statement
The “Isarithm” remix is sourced from the 184 sections of Mark Amerika’s “Sentences on Remixology 1.0” essay. Each sentence becomes a 30 frame video multi-verse where forms oscillate between intelligible lines and illegible texts. The video is accompanied by Woulg’s music which samples Mark Amerika’s “Consider the Is” audio reading.
