"Tiny Plastic Rainbow" is a shifty narrative about trauma, aloneness and a dog with one eye. Set in a modern urban environment, TPR chronicles one day in the lives of seven adults. Each character is pathologically consumed by a purposeful sense of detachment and sorrow. This necessitates creative coping techniques and prevents any connection with each other or the phenomenal world that surrounds them. Their lives are solitary but synchronized. That is, although they do not specifically know each other, their paths cross constantly throughout the day. The audience becomes implicated in the crime of coincidence and missed opportunities.

"Art Jones commissioned this piece for a show called “Word” which opens at Diverse Works in Houston this April. Each participant was asked to choose a particular article or essay in order to generate a visual/audio/virtual response. The work produced is a conversation between an artist and a writer. For Skin Job, I chose to respond to various articles contemporary theorist, Laura Kipnis has written about pornography. I am interested in the similarities between how she writes about sexualized female bodies and how many other contemporary writers address technology. We fetishize flesh in the same way that we fetishize machines. The text in the piece is an original haiku which suggests that the heroine is man-made—an android. She is a bionic woman with an unlikely sense of loneliness, sexuality and desire. She seems observed and disoriented in her empty, future space. This piece contemplates a virtual identity as it influences a sense of contemporary utopia. (...)"

"This is a personal tape about history, boredom and super-8 film. A lone boy lurking in the grassy knoll plays himself in a day to day anti-drama. The same boy takes on the un-romantic role of a well-known political figure. It is judicious to assume that in this instance, somewhere between speculation and depression lies the truth. This piece features by Prefuse 73, Autopoieses and Stars of the Lid."

"A Room With the Walls Blasted to Shreds and Falling" is a non-narrative videotape shot entirely in and around central Ohio. This tape was shot over a two week period but means to document a “day” in the life of the Midwest—it begins at swim team practice at 8:00am and ends after midnight in the parking lot of an all-night grocery store. It is a series of idiosyncratic sequences which suggest a certain sense of extreme in the gestures of the everyday. A man waits for his flight in the airport. A teenage girl walks through her sub-division to meet a friend. An older woman washes her hair in the sink. A young boy sits on the floor playing video games. A plane flies overhead. Clouds shift. Cars move across the overpass. A grocery store is open all night.
