In rivers, in deserts, in jungles, in forests, in valleys, in urban spaces, there are autodidacts, self-organized\/ing private individuals that through absences and pains form communities to search in these often remote places for those that have gone missing or are unaccounted. I think of how physical topographies and psycho-topographies overlap, and from there the project imagines different overlaps of other potential meta-topographies through relating alternative, parallel, and sub-realities between realms of video games, contemporary physics and the politics of turmoil, potentially filling in gaps in officializing narratives and vernacular transmissions. The video itself serves as a reflective entanglement with imagined and otherwise overlapped realities.","space":"Small\/Medium room or end of hallway.
