Parsing – Halves of an Essay, with Blank Spaces and Mistakes, Running in Simultaneous 2016



Digital HD file from original text: 16:9, 13 minutes and 22 seconds, b&w, silent
An essay divided into two parts that run simultaneously, with words redacted, replaced by underscores. I wrote the essay while living and working in Greenwich, London, and it examines James VI of Scotland/James I of England and his son, King Charles I, relationships with power and wealth. The redacted words are those that denote social status and spaces.
