Kilo Kish's Negotiations offers a exploration of the human body and mind as interconnected machines navigating the complexities of modern life. Central to this project is the notion of error and glitch, reflecting our contemporary struggles with finding stability in a rapidly accelerating world. Kish examines how our programming—shaped by internal and societal scripts—dictates our responses, revealing that we often fall prey to established patterns or norms. The act of running “codes” to tune and reprogram the self emerges as a vital theme. Each coping mechanism—be it stoicism, perfectionism, softness, or optimism—offers unique paths forward.
Negotiations acknowledges the fragility of our processing capabilities. Over time, perspectives can become strained or circular if not actively addressed, emphasizing the need for intentional energy management. Personally feeling stuck under the weight of more deliverables, assets, and art now positioned as ‘content’ the record explores the personal breakdowns of the body and mind amid these intense shifts.
In essence, Kish’s Negotiations invites us to reflect on internal and external scripts and the energy exchanges that define our existence. By illuminating the relationship between emotional resilience and self-betrayal, Kish reminds us that while we may often feel like cogs in a machine, we possess the power to stop, reflect, and rewrite our own narratives.
