In Kohlberger's second film that could be considered narrative driven, the artist fashions a dystopian fiction from the remnants of cinema's past. Drawing on excerpts from obscure sci-fi films, THE ELECTRIC KISS imagines a world not unlike our own, in which people plug their brains into a kind of neuro-network that connects the whole of human consciousness. As cyberpunk imagery draped in VHS textures alternates with passages of prismatic visual noise.
