Plastic and Rust
by Carmine Grimaldi
synopsis
In the late sixties, a psychiatrist in the American mid-west theorized that the human mind could be treated like videotape, that consciousness could be modulated, erased, rerecorded, and even transmitted through pulses of electricity. This is the story of that clinic, but also the story of the video archive as it moves through new historical, aesthetic and technological eras, as the lives of it captured are again remediated, transformed, and reanimated in imagined futures.
