Part pulp, part hauntological ghost glitch – this is the documented results of Botborg’s researches into the ‘occult’ science of Photosonicneurokineasthography (psnky). “Literally, psnky means ‘writing the movement of nerves through use of sound and light’ and was first developed by Dr Arkady Botborger (1923-81) in the mid 1960s.”
Part of Botborg’s work concerns the induction of new mental states by the means of repeated exposure to machine-aided synaesthetic media whereby light and sound are forced into a self-feeding interaction. Through transformative processes in which light becomes sound, and vice versa, the viewer is forced to perceive Botborg as a single signal rather than as separate audio and video streams.
