- After Marcelyn Gow’s introduction, Mario Gooden’s presentation begins at 7:57 with no images and no sounds.
At 8:52, an audio collage begins, followed, at 11:08 by an animation depicting black holes. Animated forms are followed by still and video images.
Throughout the presentation, Gooden’s words are accompanied by a soundscape - including ambient sounds, voices, and music - and still and moving images - including photographs of iconic personalities, art and architecture - including images of work of his firm Huff + Gooden Architects. (Sources of images and sounds are credited at 45:52)
At 16:04, Mario Gooden speaks about events and space as described by physics, histories of spaces defined by anti-Black racism, and political, artistic and literary attempts to realize a Black commons, “to imagine and to image geographies of freedom, known and unknown”.
At 46:14 the black hole animation from the beginning is repeated.
I had the privilege to view this within an extremely intimate environment of about 30 people in a small lecture hall in Charleston. This is not a lecture, it is an event. Thank you, Mr. Gooden, for this piece.
Thanks
