*If orientation is lost in the drone image (loss of horizon per In Free Fall - Hito Steyerl), there is an opportunity to shift the point of view to a likeness of a Dream-state, to enter into another kind of flow only if the drone is powered by forces other than a driver/pilot. Can the point of view be transferred to another entity (an A.I?) How would an A.I. corroborate data to inform its perspective?
Central paradigm of modernity - central perspective (1-eyed immobile spectator) - which is then empowered by the central eye of the observer who’s eye informs the perspective, and at the same time the observer is expendable. The worldview is enforced and destabilized at the same time.
The idea of free-falling is different from a floating image - the aerial view, google maps, drone shots. These types of images leave us in stasis - unaware a subjectivity or objectivity. What is the self (subject) in screens? Loss of tactile images. How does pre-internet tactility (traditional sensory information) change within the ’screen’ environment? What is the relationship between simulation and orientation? Simulation slows or speeds up time, therefore orientation --> To be in a drone simulation - a loop, flowing.
