    Cosmic Indifference in the Anthropocene
    (2018) Panfil, Matt; Petranek, Stefan
    My multimedia thesis work depicts confrontations between humanity and both natural and supernatural entities and forces, as well as examines the implications of cosmic indifference: a philosophical and literary ideology wherein humankind exists at the mercy of ambivalent, and often cruel, machinations of nature. I synthesize disparate media to create immersive installations, cut-paper collages, experimental films, and sculptural assemblages designed to unsettle and transfix my audience, in order to transcend faculties of normative human reason.
