The Martian

Red Stick Festival
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
2016

Collaboration with Jesse Allison

In conversation with James Baldwin's question...how much time.... Additionally, I am exploring my questions around what I perceive to be a culture of disembodiment. This piece combines image and text / actual and digital landscapes to challenge time, space as it relates to emotional engagement, personal and collective narrative/authorship. Several ipads are on stands differing heights are placed in a dark projection/gallery space. The glowing ipads appear to float as their black mounts disappear in the darkness of the space. On these devices play my out of sync, DIY versions of Ridley Scott’s 2015 feature film “The Martian”. On the walls of the space are projected live processed and captured sounds, videos and time code.
