Journal of Captured subject, designated 'CAG-MES 2021' The first official example of a human specimen infected by CAG-2020, Subject 1 appeared obsessed with depicting CAG-2020, reporting that they were directly communicating with the being. This is the only concrete evidence that CAG-2020 exists outside of the minds of 'Messengers'. The circumstances of their eventual escape required significant intervention from an unknown third party and information unavailable to subject 1. In the leadup to their escape, they were provided with pens and paper by an unidentified orderly. Below are the notes and markings from subject 1 in the 24 hour period between receiving the materials and the subject's escape from captivity. subject 01 Our first attempt to study those exposed to CAG-2020. The following documents a highly escalated infection of 'Cagnification', paired with notes from the facility psychiatrist. Session 1 Asked to depict simple personal emotions, Subject 01 begins with a series of simple but ambiguous expressions. Despite being asked to center the drawings on their own feelings, the images are rapidly completed with features reminiscent of CAG-2020 Item 01 As a final resort I advised that the room of Subject 01 was searched for any other signs of expression linked to our work together. This appears to be a key for a written form of communication centred around features typical to depictions of CAG-2020, discovered in the cell of Subject 01. Are these drawings (most notably session 14) a form of written communication? subject 01 Our first attempt to study those exposed to CAG-2020. The following documents a highly escalated infection of 'Cagnification', paired with notes from the facility psychiatrist. 1/10 Entry 2: Infected subject surveillance Soon after escaping the facility, Subject 1, despite facing considerable risk of exposure and re-capture, released footage documenting their improbable escape. The video appears to be their attempt to explain the nature of CAG-2020. The video appears to degenerate to a stream of consciousness from a variety of sources. It is implied that this is how 'Cagney' uses messengers to communicate and adopt new personas.

On Canon: Those exposed to Cagney often refer to 'Canon'. They take Canon to mean the accepted collection of 'true' information about Cagney. They reject any depiction of Cagney being 'more true' than others. As personal encounters with Cagney are limited, 'Truth' is instead garnered by aspects of Cagney that appear consistently, through shared interest and witness accounts. get me back to...

Symbiocene All that remains are the machines built to remember. With any luck, they will build mouths to speak, so we can sing with the birds and plastic again. "to affirm the interconnectedness of life and all living things" The newest anti-disciplinary research project in association with cagney.org, 'Symbiocene' is a multimedia performance practise focusing on the creation of live interactive systems between human and non-human performers. HOW symbiomimicry: using new technology to recreate the mutually beneficial associations between different life forms found in nature: connecting performers, audiences and the natural world to create emergent models of co-existence. Our creative team are currently focusing on the following pillars: Sound As a visceral language between performers, communities, animals and machine, we use sound as the foundation of our reactive systems. So far this has led us to duets between field recording, audio-reactive visualisers and computer interpretation. We are also seeking ways to make sonic experiences more accessible, using visual feedback and stage technologies to increase sound's reach. Archive in creating a post-anthropocene future, we want to maintain our connection to our existing communities, exploring our generation's role as self-documentarians. This has led us to integrate oral storytelling, personal music projects and audience response into our reactive systems. Liveness To communicate the live elements of our performance without depending on multiple viewings, we have been exploring how we can combine flexible performances with autonomous and non-human systems. This has led to the use of live generative synthesis, probability based composition and investigations into using signals from plant life to shape our performance. WHO sunbiocracy: A collaboration between three distinct multidisciplinary artists. 'Symbiocene' stems from the belief that with the increase of accessibility in media creation, new modes of performance are possible. explore the team below: To play, press and hold the enter key. To stop, release the enter key. WHEN clairvoyance: Symbiocene is in active development. We are currently working to create the core aspects of the performance, using a s oundtrack prototype as the foundation for our collaboration. Take a listen: Alongside our independent efforts and venue relationships, we are currently seeking opportunities to extend the technical reach of our work, to push the possibilities of the piece and the forms it can take, such applying our reseach in installations and workshops. if you would like to follow our research, related projects or ask any questions, feel free to get in touch or join the CAGNEY.ORG mailing list: Enter your email here Sign Up Thanks for submitting!
