1. A Slow Year: Game Poems

   A collection of four one kilobyte games for the Atari Video Computer System, one for each season, about the experience of observing things. Neither action nor strategy, each game requires a different kind of sedate observation and methodical input. Accompanying the game are essays about the commonalities between videogames and poetry and 1,024 machined haiku—poetry generated by computer—8 bits worth for each season.

4. Softies

   Softies is a series of animated, typographic poems created with the Mr. Softie vector typographics
   editor. The author describes these works as “wrinkled squirming typographic poems (fresh in 2009).”
   Because of its malleable form, the work forces the user to move and engage with it. The ongoing
   reshaping of the words and the ambient music playing in the background add to its hypnotic quality.

8. ABC LA: Portrait d'une ville en 26 lettres

   “THE ABC: portrait of a city in 26 letters offers a reading in Los Angeles over the alphabet, an attempt to find coherence in what appears not to have to give shape to what is often perceived as amorphous. Beyond the clichés this portrait reveals textual and audio aspects of the city hidden behind her image hypermédiatisée”

9. When I Was President

   When I Was President is a portrait of absolute power as depicted by a fictional President of the United States. This President is unnamed and non-historical, that is, he has never, and could never, exist, yet what he represents is archetypal in nature and endures within the optimism, dangers, and limitations of political power. The work is created in Flash and divided into nine sections, each of which addresses a different Presidential act of power, and its consequences. The acts of power are elemental and metaphoric--they are simultaneously absurd, idiosyncratic, and impossible, yet they seem to tell some basic truth about the promise of absolute power, and its inherent failures. This work uses images, videos, and audio files acquired online, and modified by the artist. A credits page is included on the site.
