"We have developed speed. But we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost." These words, spoken by Charlie Chaplin in The Great Dictator more than eighty years ago are still alarmingly relevant... We are experiencing the 'paradox of plenty': huge amounts of data result in incredible precision but simultaneously in great confusion. The volume, speed and diversity of the data inevitably lead to patterns and connections being found - but these patterns and connections don't necessarily create meaning.

Give Me A Sign series (ongoing). Compact, sassy #popculture satire/social commentary series. Provoking with familiar English lingo x hypnotic uncommon groove in 10-30 secs loop playback. Telling of the 21st- century zeitgeist: that micro, pop-disco flashy, high-speed digital sensual (and if untempered, then possibly addictive/soul-jarring) stimuli swamp. And suchlike observations.
