Emit Snake-Beings also known as Snakebeings is a British/New Zealand writer multi-media visual artist and sound artist who has also worked in kinetic art, DIY ethos, DIY technology,[1] sculpture, Cinematography, and Video Editing.[2] He has a master's degree from the University of Waikato,[3] and in 2016 was awarded a PhD, entitled The DiY ['Do it yourself'] Ethos: A participatory culture of material engagement for his work linking the DIY ethic and Maker culture with contemporary theory of material agency and Material culture.[4] Recent publications have focused on developing an idea of techno-animism and ethnographic studies of technology.[5][6]

Biography

Early life

Born in the Royal Free hospital in Islington, London, Emit and his sister Bella Basura were moved by their parents to the new town of Welwyn Garden City. At the age of 20, after studying art and design at the University of Hertfordshire he moved to London to pursue a career in art, where he lived and worked in Hackney, London between the years 1987 and 1998. During this time he encountered diverse influences, including artist cooperatives, lo-fi music, underground film, outsider art, Cabaret Voltaire circuit bending art collectives, installations using found material, and site-specific installation art.[7][8][9][10] All of which was going on in the relative obscurity of one of the poorest areas of London. In 1998 Emit moved to New Zealand, continuing to work with multi-media projects including street theatre and the organisation of a 13-piece Free improvisation orchestra called The Kaosphere orchestra.[11] In 2006 he founded the Hamilton Underground Film Festival and created Karen Karnak, an invented multiple-use pseudonym under which multiple filmmakers could participate.[12]

Films

One of the Snake-Beings's first films made was The Shrine (1993)[32] which began as a documentation of the creation, display and destruction of four Shrines made during a journey through Holland and Spain lasting over 6 months between 1990 and 1991. Three nomadic shrines were eventually made during this time, each dedicated to a different element, with the fourth air shrine being the film itself. The first three shrines were destroyed but the super 8mm film, which documented the process, was preserved and exhibited in a series of underground film festivals including the exploding cinema in summer 1993. The preservation of The Shrine led to the beginning of a series of coin-operated shrines, which are described below, as well as the beginning of several super 8mm films.[33] Santa Arson (1995), filmed on super 8mm, was made with Steve Rife, a pyrotechnics artist from Saint Paul, Minnesota.

A later film The Remote Viewers (2008) examines the connection between technology, the mass media and magic. The synopsis from snakebeings website provides a clue into some of the seemingly random imagery of which the film seems comprised:[34]

Electrical Shrines

Between the years 1991 and 2001 Emit Snake-Beings created over 30 coin-operated electrical shrines, reflecting a combination of technology and religious deities within a polytheist system. Described as techno-animistШаблон:By whom machines the shrines were made as a series of free standing works and commissioned pieces and ranged from 4 cm X 4 cm to over 2 Meters in height. "The Shrine to Nikola Tesla", created in 1995, was displayed in the tattooist shop 'Sacred Art'[36] London N16 for several years-

The shrine "Tattooist´s Electrical Reliquary Spirit Box" was made in 1998 as a commissioned piece for Temple Tattu in Brighton.Шаблон:Citation needed
