The Archipelago #12: Evan Calder Williams – Visions Of The Apocalypse Pt. 2
In his second book, titled “Shard Cinema,” writer, theorist, and artist Evan Calder Williams used the all-too-familiar slow-motion images of breaking glass in blockbuster films as a means to unravel the ways in which images are produced, circulated, and consumed. In the second episode of The Archipelago with Evan Calder Williams, he talks about this certain cycle in contemporary visual culture, permeating everything from action movies to visions of disaster, while also interpreting the recent shift in his interests towards architecture, infrastructure, sickness, toxicity, and conspiracy theories.
