Degenerative Knowledge Production
Video, 2024
Degenerative Knowledge Production is a speculative documentary in four chapters exploring how human intelligence and stupidity have been controlled and defined by electricity as both a physical and metaphysical force throughout history. Through examples of self-experimentation, exploitation, and linguistic patterns, the documentary reveals how the ”cogiocratic system” shapes human cognition by influencing our electrical impulses and thought pathways. The film is primarily composed of found materials from social media and was co-written with the philosopher Thomas Moynihan.
