about

Meetings 15' 9" 1999

On the downward slope of the late Anthropocene, the search for salvage will become the major way to make a living. The economics and means of production will be reduced more and more to the most rudimentary forms while the necessary skills and knowledge required for continued progress in technological areas will have finally collapsed upon themselves after many iterations while being slowly diluted and forgotten as a result. A sense of crisis will permeate everything in the world as humanity continues to sleepwalk through it half-consciously. That part of humanity who persevered and survived catastrophe after catastrophe of this slow yet eventual apocalypse will eventually be reduced to the level of hunters and gatherers. This time, however, the "hunter" seeks out the waste and rubbish which was left behind by the previous generations which failed before the present one. With things that they can find, they can barter as an organized group, with those who can still reprocess and repurpose it as well as distribute it. With this exchange for what they can gather, they can receive those items which they have come to believe are necessary to maintain their barely subsistent lives, as well as buoy the hope for the return of a quality of life which now only exists in memories and dreams which are slowly dissolving into myth. One joins a salvage crew both as a "challenging adventure," which will get them out of the dull depression of their day-to-day struggle for existence, as well as a gamble to "strike it rich": which they believe will return them to that quality of life that actually never really existed anyway, but rather was just the dull continuation of various reactions which led to the present situation which they now find themselves in.
