New Arranging Tangerines episode alert!

In this episode, we talk with video artist Kadir Kayserilioğlu about his recent work “The Walls of Heaven”, currently featured in the exhibition Pulsar as part of Projected Ecologies at MUCA Campus in Mexico City. We discuss the accidental origins of the piece, ideas of creation and control through terrariums and Sea Monkeys, god complexes in both art and gaming, reenactment as a narrative device, YouTube aesthetics in video essays, and how humor, chance, and contradiction shape Kadir’s broader practice. Plus, we hear about his earlier work “The Garden of Forgetting”, and a glimpse into what might come next.
