After spending more than a month in Hong Kong, our crazily talented and award-winning FUSE Residency artist group Soda_Jerk is going to perform for us here in Hong Kong for the first time! The Carousel is a live video essay that summons the séance fictions of film. It presents an alternate history of cinema as a burial crypt where we collectively commune with the dead. Within this work Soda_Jerk use live narration to navigate an eclectic matrix of film samples; combining media theory, mysticism, deconstruction and techno horror.
