REMOTE INTIMACY — Online talk at Seattle Design Festival presenting upcoming publication, Remote Intimacy (with Rosalie Yu and Jayme Yen). “Three strangers met online every week during the pandemic to explore how the tools and strategies of remote meetings can be misused or broken to simulate closeness and connection.” Our three year set of weekly experiments will be published in book form in the Fall of 2025.









FREE MUSEUM — I invited students at the Srishti Manipal Institute of Art, Design and Technology to propose new models for content dissemination in public space, addressing the problem of limited access/pathways to online content and our decreased participation in public life. Student projects were documented in are.na channels and books that were distributed through the campus.









DRAWING ON INTERFACES / ZOOMING INTO ZOOM — Online workshop at SFPC.

Embracing the conditions we found ourselves in during the pandemic, the workshop centered on the platforms we use daily across geographic borders and time zones, starting with Zoom.

Class surveyed how artists have manipulated, disassembled and subverted everyday platforms (Instagram, Google Docs, Street View, etc), repurposing them for both image-making and critique. We performed our own live, collaborative experiments with the physical structure of Zoom, exploring its possibilities for art-making. Zoom as a drawing tool, Zoom as pixels, Zoom as a mirror, etc. We attempted to deepen student awareness of how human movement, behaviour and culture is shaped by the digital applications and tools we use every day, challenging the expectations of their designers / owners.
