ABOUT THE WORK
Both videos, MONSTRUO and DYSLEKSIC, use existing web based social media platforms to create visual patterns triggering unforeseen imagery. It’s the detritus of daily media consumption in the cratering environment of modern technology, passed through a blender, and reconfigured by an algorithm that is being uncooperative.
DYSLEKSIC is the result of an exchange and remix of video files between myself and new media artist JIMPUNK from Paris, France
