This series consists of computer keyboards that have been fired at with a shotgun. Each keyboard bears a title – whatever sequence of keys was entered by the pellets upon impact – which is engraved on a metal plate, while footage documenting the process plays next to the keyboards. The term “shotgun texting” is internet slang for sending the same message to a large number of people simultaneously. The idea also draws inspiration from William Burroughs’ “shotgun art,” in which he shot spray paint cans to create paintings. The work might be said to be a contemporary take on the proverb “The pen is mightier than the sword,” and is very much a product of exonemo’s current working environment: the United States.
