We are proud to present [a series of 5 videos](/brody-condon) by artist [Brody Condon](/brody-condon), recorded in 2014. 

The Berlin based artist (b. Mexico 1974) often facilitates and documents game-like group encounters that experientially probe dissociative phenomena. His work is best known for its early influence on re-purposing computer games and LARP techniques ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brody_Condon)).

Condon's work has been widely exhibited internationally, and been acquired by public collections such as the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Albright-Knox Gallery, and the Kadist Foundation.

The 5 video works are each available in an edition of [3 non-fungible Ethereum tokens](https://left.gallery/work/evp-amie). These tokens are progressively priced: respectively 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ether, and sold on a [first-come, first-served basis](https://left.gallery/work/possession-janet) (no auction).

We like to thank our friends at [Folia](https://www.folia.app/) and Alberto Granzotto for their support.

“This book is hard to explain. Or, if this book can be explained by a few words, then you may say that Rainbow Sherbet has failed fundamentally.”

“The book is ostensibly about the work of Min Guhong Manufacturing, a parasite ‘corporation’ that lives off the publisher and graphic design studio Workroom. Its founder, Min Guhong, is a writer, editor, translator, designer, and a software developer, but probably not in that order. The corporation produces practical and speculative ‘products,’ from video games and computer softwares to short novels and music playlists. One of the recurring themes of the diverse products is self-reflexivity: after all, many of them are about Min Guhong Manufacturing itself.”

“written by byul.org, song seungeon, jang ucheol, han yuju, laurel schwulst, kim nuiyeon, kim hyungjin, and yoon juli. edited by yoon juli. designed by [sulki and min](http://sulki-min.com). published by archive bomm and workroom spector.”

“A beautiful typographic river is near the company. its name is ‘river (typography).’”

“In typography, rivers (or rivers of white) are gaps in typesetting which appear to run through a paragraph of text due to a coincidental alignment of spaces. Rivers can occur regardless of the spacing settings, but are most noticeable with wide inter-word spaces caused by full text justification or monospaced fonts. Rivers are less noticeable with proportional fonts, due to narrow spacing. Another cause of rivers is the close repetition of a long word or similar words at regular intervals, such as ‘maximization’ with ‘minimization’ or ‘optimization’.”

”*Times Blank* is a blank typeface based on times new roman, and inspired by adobe blank. it is available in two font weights from regular to bold.”

”*times blank* was first presented to the final showcase of the Society for Power Control (SFPC) at the School for Poetic Computation (SFPC) in new york, summer 2016.”

“*times blank* is also Min Guhong Manufacturing’s official typeface. It goes well with john cage’s *4’ 33”* as a background music.”

“*times blank* can be used everywhere or whenever something blank is needed.”
