Ode to Seekers 2012 was initially conceived at Rockland Psychiatric Center in Orangeburg, New York, which contains the abandoned children’s ward that is navigated through from a mosquito’s point of view. The similarities between human behavior and that of the three computer generated seekers in the video - a mosquito, a syringe, and an oil derrick - suggest a sense of camaraderie, but also provoke a fear that, like those digital objects, we may just be a puppet of algorithms or economic networks or genetic coding.
