Annie animation, scanning via Processing.
In 2019 I participated in a cyanotype and coding workshop at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Colorado led by Casey Reas. The focus was on experimenting with image printing and hand coding programs in Processing to scan large images. Practicing this technique and experimenting later, I created an animation using imagery of one LA Darling mannequin from the 1953 Annie detonation at the Nevada Test Site. The work explores a bodily focus and expresses aspects of the material quality of prints. It is a single-channel video, HD1920 x 1080, 17s, loop.
The Evolution of Silence V2 video premiere at Cucalorus.
The Evolution of Silence, Version 2 is an animation and generative video created by hand coding in Processing (not AI). It is a moving collage of dynamic arrangements of archival images of the LA Darling mannequins used in the civil defense program and connected to two nuclear detonations at the Nevada Test Site. I began this video project in Casey Reas’s “Generative Cinema with Processing” workshop at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in July 2018. I premiered the work at the 2018 Cucalorus Film Festival in Wilmington, NC. Special thanks to Matt Hedt and Casey Reas.

Acting in Translation, SIGGRAPH 2014.
SIGGRAPH 2014 took place in Vancouver, Canada from August 10–14. I am so glad I was able to participate in the Art Gallery this year. The theme ‘Acting in Translation’ explored alternate meaning, approaches to knowledge, and critical technological experience. I met amazing people: this year’s Art Gallery curator, Basak Senova, an amazing woman and designer; the Art Gallery committee: Mushon Zer-Aviv, Sue Gollifer, Kate Armstrong, and Amit Zoran; and, of course, the other artists exhibiting: especially Emilio Vavarella, Zohar Kfir, Jeff Ong, and Alon Chitayat.
