As part of the LIVE program
1-800-GET-LOST consists of four experimental video remixes (1-800-FICTION, Bleach Formula, Heikki Laaksonen’s Silent Syllables, Pink Trilogy). The project addresses the moment when the countless struggle to establish a sense of connectedness eventually conjure up an endless nightmare that overwhelms the physicality of life.
By reediting and overlaying language, pop-culture phenomenon, smartphone clips, and found footages from the Internet, the convolution of layered moments will demonstrate the itineraries to the nature of chaos, or the views of induced panic.
