"What's a Life?" is a project that developed over the course of a few years incorporating material recorded on Super 8 film, cell phone video, and audio recordings. The recordings are a mix of portraits of musicians as well as diary material focused on sound and music. While the project was "alive" and I was still accumulating new material, I would present it as a multimedia installation or as expanded cinema performances involving multiple television screens, video and Super 8 projection, cassette tapes, and mp3 audio playback, editing the material anew for each presentation and incorporating varying amounts of chance and site-specificity into each version. After a few years of letting the work live, breath, and grow, I decided to stop it's life in this form, and have since edited an hour and a half long single channel video work, some sections of which (the one you are seeing now for instance) may be shown independently.

On the eve of World War II, did Humphrey Jennings make a film about the 1937 Paris Exposition? Walter Benjamin seems to think so. Jennings, British filmmaker and Surrealist, and Benjamin, Marxist philosopher, were both in Paris in 1937, although their paths didn’t cross. But, some years later, they both meet on a perch on the sky. As Jennings and Benjamin watch the film of the Paris Exposition go by in slow motion their conversation is jousting and gossiping, exposing differences between British and European positions. Focused on their two great unfinished works, Jennings’s Pandaemonium and Benjamin’s The Arcades Project, they discuss Modernism, Surrealism, progress, history, technology, capitalism as spectacle, and the consequences of a divided Europe.’
