Articulated gap

Item is a video work created by Edward Slopek in 1983. The video is of a close-up of a speaking mouth, repeating a short philosophical blurb by Sir Alistair Hardy. Each time the speaker repeats, he seems to drop bits of words, making the passage of text more and more disjointed and garbled. In the end, it no longer has the appearance of spoken English. This is accompanied by an irritating single-note, high-pitched drone, which further alienates the viewer.
