In 2004, Zurkow completed a seven channel, multi-linear animated installation, \u0022Nicking the Never,\u0022 which was presented as a work-in-progress at The Kitchen in New York, and premiered at FACT in the U.K. in 2004. Other recent projects include the award-winning animated episodic \u0022Braingirl,\u0022 that chronicles a mutant-cute girl who wears her insides on the outside; \u0022PDPal,\u0022 a mapping application/installation for screen, web and mobile devices that allows a user to \u0022write her own city,\u0022 in collaboration with architect Scott Paterson and technologist Julian Bleecker; and \u0022Pussy Weevil, or How I Learned to Love the War,\u0022 a vile, interactive, animated persona. Zurkow\u0027s icons and characters have been incorporated into diverse projects, from animated films to hotel design, lightboxes and clothing. Zurkow\u0027s work has been exhibited at the Sundance Film Festival, the Rotterdam Film Festival, Ars Electronica, the Walker Art Center, the Brooklyn Museum, SFMoMA, Eyebeam Atelier, Totem Design and bitforms gallery, and broadcast on MTV and PBS.
