“In Kohlberger’s second film (…) 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 (…), a quasi-plot emerges: a man in a VR headset (…) subjects himself to a mysterious procedure to alleviate the ill effects of this new technology on the mind.” (Jordan Cronk)
