Ghost Frequencies

Amidst ghosts of all stripes, the Polterzeitgeist cavorts, connects and commands constellation.  Cavorting even now within a flock of ghostings, ghost queries and frequencies in the nascent networked haunt known in common parlance as andreview.

Here, alongside varied spectral works by Ayni Raimondi, Cecile Wesolowski, Derek Franklin, Eddie Malone, Eliza Fernand, Erik Blad, Erin Perry, Hajara Quinn, India Radfar, Jared Israel Best, Jesse Malmed, Jovanna Tosello, Kristine Thompson, McIntyre Parker, Paul Wig, Polly Bresnick, Rachel Garber, Ryland Walker Knight, Scott Riley, Serrah Russell, Vandoren Wheeler and Yvonne Most, the Polterzeitgeist solicits new nodes for furthering an ambiguous, ambient, and atemporal asphyx.

Polterzeitgeist Persists

With many thanks to The Electromagnetic Archeologist for the spirit photographies, ’twas a successful engagement with the Polterzeitgeist Outreach Coordinator at the DIVA gallery in Eugene.  After a spirited romp thru the Revenant Archives, ogling evidence of trad telepathies—of séances and clairvoyant horses—Irving Bleak then assisted me in establishing a link with today’s multi-modal phantom presence.  Made manifest by way of all manner of real and imagined technologies, the residual energies of the Polterzeitgeist are loitering near Portland presently, invited to the area’s newest haunt next week!

This Tuesday, May 25th @ the Grand Detour, an exciting new space for “experiments in new media,” The Polterzeitgeist will again be conjured up!  New channels, new modes of thought, this audio-visual exposé will unfold in conjunction with Deep Leap Microcinema’s The Internet is a Terrible Place to Live showcase!

Polterzeitgeist Descends

This Saturday, May 15th at the DIVA gallery of Eugene, Oregon, it’s The Polterzeitgeist:   An audio-visual exposé on a spectral populace looming betwixt and between today’s networked cosmos!
 
Led by yours truly in collaboration with my colleague Irving Bleak. Preceded by an illuminating lecture by Kristen Gallerneaux, curator of the Revenant Archives exhibit currently on display at DIVA gallery.

“The Revenant Archives is an institution concerned with the visual and material culture of the paranormal.  Consisting of artifacts, documents, ephemera, works on paper, and reconstructions, it uses folkloristic, parapsychological, and scientific means to offer new interpretations of ambiguous situations and to investigate the conflicts and byproducts of belief in society.”
