Wave Form

"Wave Form" explores movie viewing, sharing and making as a means of confronting the experience of mental illness. It illuminates the sustaining, transformative powers of film by transforming a variety of “waves” from cinematic history—ocean waves, waving hands, waves of soldiers—through the luma waveform scope, a technical feature of movie editing software. Converted into luma waveforms, the original filmic images are rendered unrecognizable, their representational nature exchanged for a ghostly, mesmerizing shimmer.

Body Prop - Movement 1 [destroyed be forever all the bonds of nature]

The vengeance of Hell boils in my heart / In your cold room / The silence that makes you mine / Fall, stars / She sat around and counted them all a million times / My name no one will know / And if my love were in vain / Oh God, I would want to die! / She was the roughest, toughest frail / In your cold room look at the trembling stars / I am pining, I am tormented! / but my mystery is closed in me / Have pity / I’ll win at dawn and we must alas die / Have pity / Death and despair flame about me

Moon (for Alan)

"Moon (for Alan)" is an abstract tribute to Alan Turing (1912 -1954), British mathematician, computer scientist, cryptanalyst, philosopher, and gay icon. A pioneer of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence(A.I.), Turing was instrumental in breaking the German Enigma code, an elliptical language-basedencoder (in-out, out-in, repeat). In 1950 he outlined an ‘imitation game’,comparing human and machine outputs, now called the Turing Test. Later in life he turned to the understanding, through computing, ofbiological patterns in nature, followed by his criminal conviction of homosexuality (with court mandated chemical castration and eventual suicide). As played out through A.I. and machine learning, the ongoing negotiation of what it means to be humanhighlightsdesire and will as precarious tethers to humans frommachines on all spectrums.
