Brian Felsen's STRANGERS' GALLERY - an multimedia artwork on consciousness
Artist - composer - performer
No broadheads (2007)
C-print on Gatorboard
News: My latest musical work will be
completed in Feb. '08, and I will release preview tracks here (along with some
new poetry).
Artistic Statement:
My interest is in finding a new
artistic language to represent the experience of consciousness - and in so
doing,
to use art as a tool to elicit a spiritual experience without resorting to the
supernatural.
Consciousness is not a "stream" but is more like a flood.
It is difficult to capture its essence with language alone: words alone are
linear and slow, and the terms and metaphors of folk psychology are coarse and
misleading. That's why reporting your own "stream of consciousness" is
difficult: first-person reports are notoriously intrusive, unreliable, and
unverifiable.
I use music,
theatrical performance, photography, poetry, and film to illustrate the
multi-layered complexity of recursive processing systems in the brain.
Throughout my work, I introduce new concepts and techniques to show how the
experience of consciousness emerges from the clamor of competing voices within
the parliamentary chamber of the mind. The purpose is for the creation and
viewing of the work to engender a feeling of awe at how the complexity of
subjective experience emerges and evolves, without adding an extra element of
"soul" or "consciousness" to the universe.
