About this exposition

Cyan and cyanides and their connected substances, organisms, and processes, constitute subject matter and material subject for the practice-based inquiry of O≡Cyan. Cyan emerges in photochemical and photosynthetic processes imaging us: the CMYK colour space, cyanide poison, cyanobacteria, and cyanotype. Cyanide capsules, cyanobacterial algal bloom and cyanide leaching in gold mining mark their outermost horizon. Researched with a dark holistic approach, matter, method and medium are conceptually integrated and intrinsic to each other and can give rise to a critical mass of dark holistic and cyanotopic worlding – a network of narratives, phenomena, and matter. methods on the basis of dark materiality surrounding us planetary and concerning us personally, directed towards a History of Darkness - a slowly growing ABC, or material essay for Cyan and cyanides and its dark effects.
