After the David Gale workshop, we all realized how nice it is to just get some quick performances together and see what's going on.
Since I'm exploring interacting with myself on video and it's just so easy to post video to the web these days, I am going to endeavor to post some sketches to this blog. At the very least, it will be weekly. Hopefully, it will be much more frequent than that.
I constantly think that what I'm doing is pretty abstract, so I hope that involving some nebulous "net public" at this stage will help to open my practice up to folks and maybe take some of the mystery out of it - for me too!
I can't wait for all the really rude juvenile comments on YouTube...
These 3 videos are me interacting with different layers of video. I wanted to alternate between sound and movement, but it's all kinda static. However, I thought some neat stuff was starting to happen by the last one. Especially giving some context and purpose to what I felt was pretty random weird movement in the second one.
I also know you guys love hearing me singing like I've never had a singing lesson in my life! It's very liberating.

I don't know if this comment will be at all helpful to you... but I found the process when watching all three videos in succession much more interesting than the actual content.
Watching the layers form on the same 2D surface was really nice. I like that the process in constructing the performance was outed and demystified in a way.
hi lena
agree with laura- watching the technical process unfolding was very interesting-like in installments- i can see your stereoscopic fascination materialising again here:)
layering a frame within a frame, and dispersing self in a frame within a frame is interesting and also how we are viewing it online all as mediated self not live- totally mediated self becoming more cinematic, although the internet is not a traditonal cinema if you know what i mean!
how i wonder would this idea work if this were performed live? audience watching the process and playback- not sure if that's of interest to you but looking at exposing how dispersal happens in your video work?
