"Good point Quinn. The better we work with it, the more video becomes its own medium and form of 'choreography' -- different elements, possibilities and restrictions."

"We already face the challenge of proving that our work deserves to be compensated. Media works extend work to new audiences and new possibilities. I do wonder, though, at what point people will extinguish real interaction and experience, and if we…"

- Bio
- My work is a continuous study of the way in which human beings attain, acquire, and precieve identies. I am currently most concerned with the way in which identies become lost or misinterpreted from the owner's original intent when they (or it) are removed from their original enviornment. My current work, "Empty Vessels" examines images that once embodied their own voice but, which now remain subject to mere imagery and interpretations of others'. These works include: Video installation, photography, mixed mediums, and functional design.
