Doug Porter: Run Into Peace
With a text adapted from the writings of the controversial 14th-century mystic Meister Eckhart, Doug Porter's digitally manipulated videotape titled Run Into Peace (1998) presented a hypnotic yet contradictory stream of images and words. Juxtaposed in flowing layers of highway landscapes, blood maps, vacant rooms, figures, streetlights, icons and circular staircases, the images and soundtrack combined to form a repetitive, deceptively soothing sequence, a verbal-visual field into which one can sink, and which induces a contemplative condition. This video is the first of a trilogy of videotapes by digital media/video artist Doug Porter.
