Scope and content
A video essay by Alessandro Quaranta and Toni Cots, in collaboration with CRA’P – Creation Practices and Artistic Research. States of Passage, shows an ‘alterity’ of subjects and cultures, which by constituting a radical alternative to the dominant and homogeneous thought, both in terms of socio-cultural spheres and small communities, they challenge the spatial-temporal and anthropocentric convictions of control and knowledge of any visible and invisible phenomena. It is precisely in terms of the invisibility or visibility of the apparent, that which has prompted us to elaborate this essay with images, and the word as evocation. This video-essay is a testimony of this attempt: the subjects that appear are marginalised beings or entities, self-exiles, ascetics, primitives, etc., in and from the margins of ‘civilisation’. The material used consists partly of open source videos available on the net and re-edited, some available on the OVNI archive, and others created specifically for this project. Authors cited in the video essay States of Passage: Scott Barley, Philippe Descola, Federico Lanchares, Ciro Guerra, Xavi Hurtado, Gian Antonio Gilli, Toni Cots, Alessandro Quaranta, Pavel Lungin, Ben Rivers, Bruno Latour, Carlos Casas, Toni Serra *) Abu-Ali. This video essay is a non-profit research project for educational purposes.
