All This Day Is Good For by Tom Konyves
A spam lit videopoem! Tom writes,
In this ode to the simultaneous, true and false perceptions collide in a 360-degree panoramic sweep of a moment in time, rendering life and art in equal measure.
The text in this videopoem was assembled from hundreds of spam/scam e-mails I have been collecting over the years, representing the lies we are confronted with every day; yet the random phrases extracted from these passion-laden letters cannot help but also contain unintentional glimpses of truth. In between mundane and altered reality lies that precious essence of life I see as poetry.
Alex Konyves assisted with — well, almost everything, it seems. And Robin Pittman helped with the motion graphics.
