paraferáziæ

Paraferáziæ is a conceptual artistic project that explores the intersection of language, perception, and information overload. Originating in the early 2010s, the project is characterized by its multifaceted approach, often manifesting through various media including textual installations, audio works, and digital art. The core of Paraferáziæ lies in its examination of how information is processed, reinterpreted, and distorted in contemporary society.

The project's name itself, "Paraferáziæ," suggests a deliberate distortion or misinterpretation of existing content. This is often achieved by employing techniques such as algorithmic text generation, manual transcription errors, and the juxtaposition of disparate linguistic fragments. The intent is not to create a clear narrative, but rather to evoke a sense of disorientation and prompt viewers to question the nature of meaning and authenticity.

Paraferáziæ’s output frequently mimics or parodies existing forms of communication, such as news reports, academic papers, or casual conversation, but with subtle or overt alterations. These alterations serve to highlight the constructed nature of language and the subjective experience of understanding. The project has been exhibited in various international art spaces and has been the subject of critical discussion regarding its commentary on digital culture and the proliferation of "fake news." It remains an ongoing exploration by its anonymous or pseudonymous creators.
