9 Events, RCA with Tina O'Connell & Neal White in association with Objectif Exhibitions, Antwerp Saturday 5 March - Friday 25 March 2016 https://www.rca.ac.uk/news-and-events/events/9-events-studiorca/ Tina O'Connell and Neal White present 9 Events, a series of experiments and observations, talks and films drawn from their on-going artistic interest in the raw resources that are a key index of wealth in a market based society - from oil to diamonds and gold. The work is made in the context of emerging ideas of environmental and geological change within the flood of unchecked global capital. As with other works and projects undertaken by the artists, the space is used as a platform through which temporality can be explored. In this sense, the use of the RCA's Dyson exhibition space and its wider context for the presentation on objects or artefacts is reconfigured through perspectives of energy, action and reaction, collapse and control, via simulation, derivation, extraction and exchange. 1.Audio Soundscape.
