In (something in capitals) (2017) Juliana Hodkinson, with great humor and insight, sums up our time through excerpts of sentences, words, and sounds from gadgets and analog mini-synthesizers, shifting and turning the relationship between social constructions in art through the prism of experimental composition. Strong political buzzwords rhyme with words that are full-blown kitsch and pop, all poured into the same melting pot. The words are both loaded with meaning and at the same time they vibrate with senselessness, like pure sound rhymes that expose the words’ duality.
