Victim Interface (OGW-002) is an interactive poem and installation that explores how language structures power, nationalism, and victimhood.

it has been proven
that even our most complex
language systems

must bow to complexity inherent
in the unescapable lyric
that escapes each Member

this given, we appreciate
your annual inclusions
within our network state.

each treatment builds
the infinite poem
that integrate our union

we, your Lions, love
our Members, our journey
of shared recompense.

Inspired by artists such as Allison Parrish and Lillian-Yvonne Bertram, Victim Interface explores self-implication and surveillance through interactive poetry. It is the second “treatment” within The Office of the Generative Witness, an ongoing project of poems, performance, and installations.
