about

‘Surface Immortal’ (Anat Ben David)
A more tender treatment of the same themes as ‘Face Mixed with Phone’, ‘Surface Immortal’
is like a list of things recollected from a dream, perhaps looking back from an imagined future
on the current digital age.

lyrics

Surface immortal after Hito Steyerl Art in

Human and things intermingle, human and stuff, in an ever-newer constipation.
Human and things, feeding into subject face-number lurking in the dark.
Human and things humans and stuff
Humans and things- nothing in particular, a person montaged face-number lurking eyes and mouths and mixed with product and more convincing than the flesh and more newer than ever before and more surface then surface
Information becoming surface immortal immune to the passing of time

Humans and things intermingle humans and stuff, an ever-NEWER constipation
Algorithm feeding into subjectivity
Face lurking in the dark
Humans and things, human and stuff
Mixing with product,
and more convincing than the flesh, and more newer than ever before
humans and things more surface than surface.
