In classical physics, interference can be "constructive" or "destructive," "positive" or "negative," meaning that when two waves interact, they either amplify or nullify each other. This seems an apt metaphor to address our relationship with our habitat, and is the basis for each of these short, infinitely looping video pieces.
With this work, I want to underscore the complexity of our entanglement with the world in which we find ourselves. We are all tangled up in the stuff of the Earth – we’re made of earth, our every breath and action affects the ecosystem we live in, and when we die there’s nowhere to go but back to the earth. We’re constantly, every moment, surfing an unfathomably complicated set of interfering waves. Some of those wave patterns are internal – in the brain, in the nervous and circulatory systems of the body, some are external – the sounds, light, and radio waves always all around us. All of them interact with each other, and with us. This series is an attempt to make visible what that interaction feels like.
