We are proud to announce our post-doc Daniel Shanken’s installation at Chemist Gallery in London. The Pits is a new installation that descends through tiers and levels: the pit in your stomach, in the ground, and your brain. It uses eating as a crux, imagining the digestion, assimilation, offloading, and onboarding that occur when giving yourself to be devoured by technologies or entities with their own agency and agendas. The work shifts between different perspectives—human, non-human, pizza box, and microwave—exploring the pleasure and horror of willingly opting in and zoning out.
