A Plan for Escape
In Adolfo Bioy Casares’ A Plan for Escape (Fluchtplan in German), a governor has developed an experimental machinery that allows people to move into spaces through the vision of coloured shapes. This novel was a follow-up to The Invention of Morel (1940), an inexhaustible text itself about images, their recording and preservation, based on a perpetual energy system.
Both works imagine the workings of hidden mysterious machineries that can be uncovered. In 2022, they still allow a contemporary reading as digitality in our lives is developing fast.
Fluchtplan is a research notebook on topographies, representations and digital entities, using those two novels as an entry point. The publications of Fluchtplan can be images and text; interviews, researches and creations. This website is developed by the artist and curator Marie-Pierre Bonniol, to accompany the development of a film on video games and media.
From February to May 2022, Fluchtplan is supported by VG WORT, Neustart Kultur and Die Beauftragte der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien as research base for this future film.
