Trauma Loop
The show acts as a retrospective of the videos made from the past decade showing the various stages of depression, anger and acceptance of the artist maturing into adulthood. The three tvs showing the older work are juxtaposed with the large projection of video synthesis representing the artists second career as a VJ. The later half of the night curated live music and DJs transforming the space into the likes of a club or music venue. I always prefered my work to be shown at music venues since the energy and chaos matched what I wanted to represent in the videos. The show asks the question if one can still make provocative work and exist in chaotic spaces while still maturing and living a healthier life. I believe the answer is yes.
Ghost Story
Ghost Story is an Augmented Reality Installation that both parodies and observes the ideas surrounding paranormal activity. The Installation contains posted flyers with an illustration and phone number asking participants to collect ghost stories.
A collection of these stories becomes animated 3D models that are embedded into new flyers as the Augmented Reality objects. Listeners can choose to believe the authenticity of the stories while simultaneously witnessing the recreations in a real space within the augmented reality.
