MASKIN (the machine) documents the artistic research processes of SYNSMASKINEN in various ways. The content of the machine is organised by a list of tags, that filters the entries. By clicking a tag, its possible to access the documents according to their content or by their contributors.
The first layer of tags consist of the titles of the ongoing projects.
The second layer of tags consist of all participants names.
The third layer of tags is thematic. Various themes and issues that emerge in the research projects, tags the documents and can be used to filter the content. These thematic #tags also exists as so-called STOCK-CHARACTERS, that in various ways infiltrates the research and the resulting art-works.
The fourth layer of tags are systemic. They all refer to the internal dialogues and discussions on the system and process of SYNSMASKINEN itself.

Antoine Artaud - To Have Done With The Judgment Of God (Pour en Finir avec le Jugement de dieu) Note: Having spent much of his final years in various mental asylums, Artaud resurfaced in 1947 with a radio play To Have Done With the Judgment of god. Although the work remained true to his Theatre of Cruelty, utilizing an array of unsettling sounds, cries, screams and grunts, it was shelved by French Radio the day before it was scheduled to air, on February 2, 1948. Artaud died one month later.● 25/05/2019
