Sprawled Soilware
02/2021

In the depths of the universe, in the magma of the earth, in the atoms of the material world dense bodies loom, so dark and gravitational no light escapes them. No one knows if they are animals or minerals or both. Generally, the stable timespace manifold keeps the pull of their event horizon separated from human sensory perception. There are whispers however, that with the swelling eruption of cosmic flares portals have been broken open. Here, the event horizon breathes and inflates—beckoning the interface where dark bodies tickle with their tongues, suction with their orifices, nibble with their tiny teeth and caress with the enormous tips of their feelers the skin, the glands, the eyeballs, the bottom of the feet of the user at the cusp of the portal threshold...

The Hungarian artist group Hollow (formerly known as Szeri-Páll-Muskovics) teams up with Berlin-based Omsk Social Club to explore the organic and inorganic depths of the dark unknown. Merging the methodologies of contemporary dance, sound, poetics, augmented reality (AR) and real game play (RGP), the group stages a consensual hallucination as multimedia performance project, inviting participants to become absorbed, estranged or both.

SPRAWLED SOILWARE: OPUS DROP and THE MYTHOPOETIC RIFT
02/2021

Hollow and Omsk Social Club present the second offering of Sprawled Soilware: Opus Drop Hollow & Omsk Social Club :// Sprawled Soilware

Opus Drop is an experience, a shared memory of fiction and reality, in which the dying members of the past, present and rebirth can either cool or incite something new... You find yourself at a unique astrological and technological conjuncture: April’s supermoon known as the Pink moon rises in the sky the same moment, I land here in front of you.

Tomorrow morning the 28th of April will also mark one year since the Pentagon officially released videos of an unexplained aerial phenomenon.

Who knows why but it has allowed me, Levetia A. Eaf—spawnbot of Opus Drop, to hijack the telecommunications network of Telegram. You become their vision, their eye.

Their touch and fleshware.

They will help you decipher the code of Soilware.

Your living environment.
