Two new works were produced for the exhibition, one of which is specific to the context of Goldsmiths CCA and takes as its subject the musicality of Kodwo Eshun’s Mark Fisher Memorial Lecture, which took place at Goldsmiths University in 2018. Mark Fisher was a well-loved writer and academic based at Goldsmiths, whose work explored the pervasive logic of capitalism as inflected through culture, including music, literature, film, television and visual art.

Co-organized by Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts at Harvard University (30 January – 12 April 2020) and ARGOS centre for audiovisual arts, Brussels (18 April – 26 July 2020).
