Duncan Poulton - Jetsam

Duncan Poulton
Jetsam

An assemblage of footage scoured from the depths of the internet, Jetsam is a densely layered video-collage which combines computer-generated simulations of water into a constantly swirling and overlapping pool of unreal images. The soundtrack comprises simulated liquid sounds which composer Richard Stenton has reconfigured into new syncopated and congealing sonic forms.

Duncan Poulton works in an expanded form of collage spanning digital video and image assemblage. Itinerant in nature, his work is currently preoccupied with themes of simulation, copying and circulation, acting out an ongoing remediation of our increasingly virtual world.

He is involved in a constant and obsessive process of gathering materials into a vast digital archive – focusing on ‘poor’, lost or arbitrary images – and developing new frameworks or intuitive logics with which to reinsert them, offering them new life. Working exclusively with found content, he observes, deconstructs and reconfigures digital imagery to shape new formal or absurd associations and overlaps.
