Still, I Search

When the divination for meaning would be captured in the swing of a pendulum, where does the truth lie?

‘still, i search’ draws a line between the act of dowsing by pendulum and the scroll by internet search engine query. In a translation from the physical to digital practices of search, the fulcrum of the swing would move from the hand of the beholder to an unknown, unseen point of reference far beyond the plane of the screen. Keystrokes of a perpetual question echo between swings, asking, “what is the length of a pendulum?” — considering the means by which we perceive, process, and act on information in an algorithmic age.
