  5. Completely Automated

    I have formally performed “Completely Automated” on stage at a few conferences/venues and I think it could be a good fit for HASTAC’s themes. I would be very excited to perform it as part of an evening of performances. Total run-time is a duration of 15 minutes and it occurs in three parts. In the first part, I do a performative reading of a “historical” document that I have forged. To create the language of the forgery, I programmed a computer program to run a text analysis on a group of historical law tracts. I then skimmed the results and authored my own version of an early law tract. Calling on theater training, I perform this poetic text. In the second stage, the live performance overlaps and blends in with a short video that tells the story of how this forged document is digitally archived on google books as an “authentic” text. This video is blended with voice over of poetic text taken from the document. In the last stage I give a final performative reading of the changes that were made to the document when a group of users prepared it for upload in the digital archives.

  6. 2 sides/2 lados

    My work involves making marks with a rhythmical distribution of signs on a surface. Not just drawing on a surface but also physically changing it.

    The work 2 sides/2 lados is a mixture of drawing, laser cut, wall drawing and book art. Passing from one technique/material to another the invented script undergoes transformation. The initial drawn script is digitally manipulated and cut from the paper to leave voids – the marks appear by their absence. The same marks are then transferred manually to a corner wall.

    My current practice is concerned with finding a way of synthesizing the duality generated by site-specific works to produce work which involves a site-specific element and a broader element, but whose elements are integral – there no longer being an original and a copy or a site-specific version and a documentary version. Each is part of the work in its entirely – yet each is independent.

  7. Nine Gestures for J.D. Salinger

    A poetic tribute to the writings of J.D. Salinger, this work explores Nine Stories (1953), by inviting participants to write their thoughts into a book in response to nine individual prompts, each corresponding to one of the stories. Interacting with the book reveals a series of poems that follow thematic gestures from the original writings.

    To interact, open the book to any one page, read the typed prompt and then write down either a single word, or short phrase as a response, writing onto the adjoining page’s writable section using the pen. A nearby screen responds by offering several composed verses with each inscription. When a section is filled, that gesture is considered complete.

  8. Descants

    On the occasion of the ELO 2010 conference celebrating Robert Coover, I have devised a 24-channel sound installation/performance.  Given the theme of the conference (Archive & Innovate), I chose to investigate the sonic literary archive, utilizing recordings of Robert Coover in the reading his own work as a framework for this composition.  Through a computational process of spectral analysis, editing, and re-synthesis, solo speech is transformed into a chorus of diffused instrumental timbres.  Time is stretched, allowing the ebb and flow of the original readings to be heard very slowly - creating an ambient, electro-acoustic arena.

  9. nextgame

    The piece is the short story of a digital chess game, a constellation which may be read conventionally from left to right, top to bottom - or in any other combination. Each of the 16 squares encodes an eight letter (byte) word, originally a file name from a computer chess game.
