Life is what happens while we’re staring at our mobiles. Soon we won’t even need to read or speak languages; knowing how to howl will suffice. The trilling hand is a specimen case devoted to the dark side of technology, the techno-paranoia, the religion of the selfie, technopathies, digital dementia, programmed obsolescence, e-waste, post-humanism...


María Cañas de los Reyes

María Cañas, an audiovisual cannibal and iconoclast. She practices a sort of 'videomachy' (militant cinephagia) that penetrates clichés and genres to destroy them from within. She directs Animalario TV Producciones a creative space devoted to the culture of recycling, appropriationism and experimentation. Her work is a resistance to distraction pursuing personal growth and the cultivation of inner fire.
