Fred Ariel Hernandez: SEN. JAMES INHOFE (R-OK) SNOWBALL IN THE SENATE (C-SPAN), FEB 26, 2015

I mentioned in a different response to this photo that I noticed the empty seats surrounding the senator. I wonder if that sense of lonliness, or the comedic nature of his ludicrious claims, could be amplified by collaging this images within others. I am thinking of more empty seats. Or haivng Senator Inhofe addressing the Galatic Senate in Star Wars.

De-toxifying objects

Rather than subjects, this image portrays the absurd greening of vehicular transport. Rather than toxic subjects we get a process of de-toxifying objects and processes, in particular ride share companies. Perpetuating states of toxicity, and toxic subjects, thus also involves processes that de-toxify objects in the public imaginary.

This screenshot foregrounds the aesthetics of classificatory schema, the almost regimented sleek design quality makes me ponder the gulf between design and content. The PECE interface is sleek and well-organized, but the ease and minimalism of the design almost pronounce the distance we have from the toxic visualizations we are commenting on an thinking about. How can we perhaps in the cognitive and analytic process also include experiential interfaces that shape how we process and respond to toxic visualizations? This screenshot raises such questions for me.
