GREY LINE is an A/V show by the media art collective SPIME.IM. It will be presented as an audio-video live show characterized by a powerful visual and acoustic impact: the themes, represented with raw sincerity, are related to current events, climate change, and humankind's effect on the earth. GREY LINE leads the audience inside a thoughtful analysis of the world's current situation.
Gray Line
Programming has a central role in the work of the artistic collective; "crafting" audio and video instruments allows complete and unique control over the production and manipulation of sounds and images in real-time and over their interaction. The complexity of the modern world is reflected in the shades of gray, emphasizing the nuances of human experience and the multifaceted decisions we must make to survive and thrive in an interconnected, globalized society. The interplay between light and dark, good and bad, highlights that the modern world is not composed of absolutes but instead of an intricate mosaic of shades of gray that requires careful consideration and thoughtful action.
Starting from the exposure, the assimilation, and the analysis of the continuous media bombing, in an attempt to define this "era of the absurd" we are living in, also named "the wrong timeline," SPIME.IM tries to describe the emotional place in which we are trapped in.
