Bolo:A new show curated by Adam Dodd, submits a challenge for all of us to Be on the Lookout. The old adage, "No news is good news" has taken on an entirely new meaning in an age where everyone understands media.

As travelers of voids, drifters though nullifying information, post-modern refugees in a world of nukes and split-ends, we're constantly on the lookout for new stimulation. In the midst of our daily grind, we are passively consuming sources of superficial media and doing absolutely nothing about it. Developing a guilt complex doesn't sound all that productive, so some television might suffice, but the pressures of trying to keep interest along with the longing to shout-out against burdening information seems to blend together to form a cloak, enveloping us with a sensational numbness.

Bolo makes an attempt to acknowledge the importance of media, to appreciate its constant source of stimulus on our daily lives as well for providing a plethora of visual material that enriches our imagination.
