Somewhere between a home-video mixtape and a postmodern travelogue, ‘oops’ - a ten-minute art video composed entirely of appropriated YouTube videos, seamlessly stitched together via a motif of camera drops - serves both as transportative adventure and metaphorical elucidation of YouTube itself, elucidating the Internet’s infinite repository of ‘throwaway’ social documentation. From suburbia to subterranea, the radically shuffling environs induce a vertiginous yet contextual thread - a transcendent, ‘reincarnating’ POV; our omnipresent Camera - by which, the nature of the ultra-vérité videos plunges the viewer into a relationship of fleeting immediacy with its many videographers. This abstractly voyeuristic portrayal of an ever-filming generation presages a future where every instant of existence, from the mundane to the sublime, is preserved and cataloged for all to see. |
