'Non Broad Casting Time: By Kogo Takugi
—————————————————————-
In conjunction with MAAP, fAf presents Kogo Takuji in the gallery.
Utilising Flash, 'Non broad casting time' engages the intersection of
media, image and temporality. The work focusses on 'time' as a
material, in particular the notion of 'broad casting time' or media
constructions of time.
