Here is the video version of Toby's Lecture Apathy.
Part history lesson, part political campaign, Lecture Apathy is a
lecture performance that studies a 20th Century history of
dissent/disobedience and subversion and identifies the 1990’s as the
moment where the more overt and polar version of dissent (sticking your
fingers up to authority) becomes outmoded or antiquated, which in turn
leads to the suggestion of apathy as political aggressor/voice. The
scripted performance is backed-up with fast-paced slides showing these
moments of dissent leading to images of apathy and protest apathy. The
performance becomes more apathetic as it continues towards an apolitical
stance.
