The exhibtion is Desire Machine Collective’s first solo exhibition in India. Noise Life is the new video and sound work by DMC. Historicizing the representation of Assam, the artist duo engages French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s term schizoanalysis which privileges empirical sensation and intensity over meaning. More personal than other works by DMC, the piece points to excessive states of perception occurring in exceptional experiences of blindness or deafness. The work overwhelms the viewer with a chaos of sensations, and attempts to convey how we make complex sense of our lives and express our experiences.


While the videos will be displayed at Project 88, Desire Machine continues their engagement with schizoanalysis at Galerie Max Mueller by using hundreds of photographic works of a single motion to create the illusion of movement.
