The Haunt

Noxious Sector is a formalized forum for informal inquiry, a platform from which to explore the failures, intricacies and absurdities of artistic possibility. Building from stories of strange science and the paranormal, Noxious Sector projects are moments from which to wonder about the creative possibilities of speculative living. We were thinking about ghosts and wondering how they find their spaces to haunt, and what creative forms such hauntings might take. We each have our own ideas about what this might mean -- whether the inhabitation of virtual space, the willful abandon to unconscious directives, or the spirit possession of a technological present.
