Hilary Koob-Sassen (1975, USA)
As an Errorist, Hilary Koob-Sassen makes ambitious scientific and political proposals. Errorism is commitment to the act of proposal-making and a culture of proposal rather than a state of conviction. As a Syntactical Elaborationist, Koob-Sassen deploys several media to make aspects of a proposal public. He uses drawing and sculpture to model the relationships between organic four-dimensional phenomenon such as the evolution of life and the elaboration of the artificial structures that life builds. From a foundation of scientific research organized into the components of a landscape, Koob-Sassen ventures deeper into the present and future formations of human culture in time. These processual landscapes are traversed by songs and performances developed in collaboration with fellow Errorist and master cellist Andreas Köhler. The sculpture and song are syntactically bound into narrative linear phrases in Koob-Sassen’s films. The films approach, inhabit, and burrow directly through reality as it is organized in the models and sung into presence by The Errorists.
