Artist’s Statement: This poem and film, taken together, revolves around fantastical notions of escaping the all pervasive digital noise that surrounds us in everyday life. The title “Indistinct Chatter” is a phrase that appears on subtitled TV shows and movies, stated to describe a kind of brief, nondescript bustle, a barely perceptible wall of swirling whispers. So “our” indistinct chatter is almost a chaotic respite of sorts from the ordered performance of our online personas.
