Omsk Social Club

Extended Youth - An Immutable Clockface derives from a concept known as bornless immortality. This concept is a mash-up of ideas from Omsk Social Club’s present-day conditioning, the internet-at-large, endless post-political conversations and the words of Timothy Leary, Simone Weil, Alister Crowley, Discordianism and Immanuel Velikovsky. The piece traverses inside an infinite loop of death, reincarnation, hard left and right forks only to begin again in a state of cryptomnesia - the clock that never stops.

Extended Youth

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.
