1. Trilogy

   My work with visual narrative has included installation form, book works, diptychs and billboard presentations. Using the web has allowed me to continue to expand my preoccupations with constructing rules for reading, methods of pacing and continue to explore image/text relationships. I am interested in the space between language and image.

   Trilogy is comprised of 3 image/text narratives whose themes are concerned with survival. Locale and characters are suggested by cropped fragments from mass media imagery as well as map fragments. While the images may allude to time period by photographic style or content, their function (protagonist, action, location) is directed by the text.

   Trilogy is a collaboration with Los Angeles fiction writers Rod Moore and Katherine Haake, both of whom have allowed me to reconfigure their texts.

2. Gladiator Simulator

   The gladiator Spiculus enters the arena one last time in this text-based simulator. Armed with a sword and shield, he fights gladiator after gladiator until he is killed. The character Spiculus is inspired by one of the most famous gladiators of the 1st century AD Rome. Spiculus won many great battles and was well-known by audiences. He was particularly admired by the emperor Nero who rewarded him with palaces and riches for his heroics.
