  Rumors or Episodes


  Yangachi Episode II
 is an extension of Yangachi Episode I. These episodes create uncertain rumors and stories that claim to stand in a series. Yangachi has collected anarchistic and extreme acts and images and objectified them in “Kamikaze rider” and “A sniper’s gun.” This sort of objectification makes up the surface of the Episode series and he pursues this message through rumor-making. During the process, he brings up the logic of sniping, which requires a high degree of concentration towards the targeted object. Thus, he delicately controls normally uncontrollable rumors. “Sniping” acts as a sort of a metaphor and as the artist has mentioned, to shoot a system is a strategy meant to disrupt our psychological link to the security of a system. The artist seems to choose the series in Episode in order to make an explosion among the consciousness of unification, which has gradually grown from the idea of “Hacking.” “Hacking” is internally connected to “A sniper’s gun,” and becomes the act of sniping toward a predictable algorism.

  A series often has certain similarities. It is usually seen as a flexible and smooth progression of events despite the omission of certain parts of the story. People sometimes consciously setup a series to omit certain information. An artist, as a mediator, and consumers alike usually put forth omniscient and expectable experiences. Yangachi’s Episode series arouses a certain self-awareness among the participants by associating stories from differing timelines. Of course, this kind of self-consciousness will be independent of the individual’s own conscious. His work seems to be a type of “enforcement leading toward development” as well as an agitation of self-identification. Although it is particularly concerned with global capitalism, it also urges us to escape from our established experiences, which also consist of unidentifiable rumors (bad rumors). In actuality, vision can validate only certain aspects of rumors. That is, vision cannot provide the whole contour of an object.

  Therefore, one cannot see the entirety of objects through vision alone. One can perhaps imagine more accurately when he listens rather than when viewing an object. The power of rumors is always connected to the absence of reality, which one cannot validate in the present. Rumors achieve their great power through the removal of reality.
