American artist Tony Oursler (b. 1957) gathers inspiration from the way peoples desires are extended through interaction with mass media, specifically cinema, television, and the internet, and creates fascinating video installations that combine words with projections of grotesque and sublime images. compiles fifty transcripts of Ourslers videos, offering an entirely new way to apprehend the nuances of his work. The selection of pieces featured in this publication date from between 1977 and 2013, spanning nearly the entirety of Ourslers practice. Adding valuable context are scholarly essays explaining Ourslers creative process and full-color illustrations of his videos.
Among other revelations, these transcripts show that Oursler is not merely a video artist, but a writer as well. The vernacular language that Oursler employs is written to be spoken by electronic entities and carries a sort of musical cadence that makes his text surprisingly lyrical. This comprehensive anthology uncovers the poetry in Ourslers work and captures the unique nature of his artistic voice.
