  • Art Statement Bibliography

    Artist states that their image-synthesis/image-processed video works are serial constructions produced with custom-built analog and digital processors; each section is a synthesized real-time recording in which sound and image are parallel electronic structures mutually controlled by predetermined waveshapes. The work addresses people, interaction, time, physical and psychic space and remembering, often rendering primitive social and biological functions such as flirtation, courtship, penetration, fission and fusion as tactile, schematized movements and transitions. Periodic wave forms (sine, triangle, ramp, etc.) are most often used as image source; their temporal makeup and iconic video display are said to evoke archetypal forms and myth and to express primordial rhythmic and natural ordering principles.
