Bobo

An exhibition of all new works by Bobo.

—

The age of autogenerative ideas begins. Two success-driven egomaniacs emerge, an ideator bro and a humorist tycoon.

Vying against one another in an attempt to accrue vast attention wealth, they compete for control of a powerful machine that cooks up limitless intellectual property and destabilizes the ideation markets.

A banished faction of craftspeople send a lone assassin through a hand thrown ceramic time-tunnel to destroy the machine, in an attempt to redirect attention back towards crafts.

Telling this chronology through video and audio, Bobo presents the output of each of these three individuals: their artifacts, and their respective appliances.

Bobo is joined by artist Benjamin Phelan, who actualizes this exhibition’s kinetic ideation machine, “The Association Engine.”
