A BOYS CLUB TERRAFORMING MANIFESTO
(Teaser)

BETWEEN A ROCK AND THAT HARD GROUND, 2019. DFK, DK
A CGI-animated video piece that highlights the rhetoric behind "space colonization". It places emphasis on the archaic-colonial vocabulary that has been preserved and reproduced by scientists, billionaire space-race entrepreneurs, and pop culture. It uses a trope and narrative based on the romanticization of colonialism and the glorification of Christopher Columbus as a heroic archetype and role model.
The voiceover was based on a transcription taken from an interview that was part of the documentary "The Search for a New Earth", in which a NASA scientist explains how to colonize space.
Medium: Video installation with sound, CGI, animation.
Duration: Original video is 04:32 minutes, looped.
Dimensions: 1920 x 1080.
Years: 2019, 2020.
