IF THERE BE THORNS
13:20 / 16mm color film transferred to digital video / 2009

A dark wave of exile, incest, and magic burns across the tropics, forging a knotted trail into the black hole. Three star-crossed siblings wander in search of one another as a storm of purple prose and easy listening slowly engulfs them.

 
 
 
 
 
MIGRATING FORMS 2009 TRAILER
1:30 / digital video / 2009

I now take complete control of my life and am happy and fulfilled by my independence.

 
 
 
 
 
HOLD ME NOW
5:00 / digital video / 2008

Plagued by blindness, sloth, and devotion, a troubled scene from Little House On The Prairie offers itself up to karaoke exorcism.

 
 
 
 
 
CAROL ANNE IS DEAD

A family embraces the heart of evil in this Poltergeist remake/drag-show circa 1992.

 
 
 
 
 
ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT
4:20 / digital video / 2008

A charred visitation with an icy language of control: "there is no room for love". Splinters of Nordic fairy tales and ecological disaster films are ground down into a prism of contradictions in this hopeful container for hopelessness.

 
 
 
 
 
VICTORY OVER THE SUN
12:30 / 16mm color film with optical sound / 2007

Dormant sites of past World's Fairs breed an erruptive struggle between spirit and matter, ego and industry, futurism and failure. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory; nothing lasts forever even cold November rain.

 
 
 
 
 
LIGHT IS WAITING
11:20 / digital video / 2007

A very special episode of television's Full House devours itself from the inside out, excavating a hypnotic nightmare of a culture lost at sea. Tropes of video art and family entertainment face off in a luminous orgy neither can survive.

 
 
 
 
 
THE GENERAL RETURNS FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER
10:45 / 16mm color film transferred to digital video / 2006

Shaping a concurrently indulgent and skeptical experience of the beautiful, the film draws an uneasy balance between the romantic and the horrid. A Frank O'Hara monologue (from a play of the same title) attempts to undercut the sincerity of the landscape, but there are stronger forces surfacing.

 
 
 
 
 
AND WE ALL SHINE ON
7:00 / 16mm color film with optical sound / 2006

An ill wind is transmitting through the lonely night, spreading deception and myth along its murky path, singing the dangers of the mediated spirit.

 
 
 
 
 
YOU DON'T BRING ME FLOWERS
8:00 / 16mm color film with optical sound / 2005

Viewed at its seams, a National Geographic slideshow from the 1960's and 70's deforms into a bright white distress signal.

 
 
 
 
 
MOTEL FLORA
5:00 / digital video / 2003

A collection of discarded souls, rescued from the trash of a college darkroom.

 
 
 
 
 
CHIQUITITA AND THE SOFT ESCAPE

Twin attempts at structuring images of home and loved-ones suffer a gentle breakdown in the face of the romantic.
