Excited to continue developing this as a performance-lecture, series of texts, and videos :)

Premiered a prototype of this at Transmediale in Berlin, Germany last month!
13 chapters delivered modularly (where no presentation will be the same), karaoke-style graphics and background audio, containing bits of simulation, performance, research queries, and other interjections
'Every Love Song in the World'
A new performance-lecture on the intimacies and extremes of infrastructures. Tracing how Filipinos condition and inhabit technologies: from cableship workers on the USAT Burnside, the ILOVEYOU virus, the 8chan forums, to League's T1 Faker as a geopolitical fantasy...
recording of this is now up! performance-presentation of my practice~

a screenshot of a long winding brutalist staircase. there is a poem written on the wall. light comes through the windows. paint splats are on the stairs.
a screenshot of a tree that looks like a human bowing. the tree is large and covered in dandelion whisps. there is a poem at the base of the screen.
a screenshot looking up at old brutalist buildings. the buildings are abandoned.
a screenshot of a desert filled with dead trees. the dead trees almost look human. there is a poem at the base of the screen.

vhs-y glitch pixel art painting, blue and pink hues
kinda "nighttime city vibes" pixel art painting. broken purple vertical lines/grid and some hot pink triangles
I've been working on a new painting toy for pixel artists, and I'd love to find a few folks to test it out and give feedback. I'm already having a lot of fun with it. Message me here or email!

I like to call the 3.5mm to 1/4" a "small to big"
A slide from Tarn Adam's talk at Northwestern's Progression Mechanics, giving a systemic diagram to the sentence "A flock of sparrows landed and ate most of the pill bugs, but one managed to survive to lay some eggs."
I've called the process of designing a system from an inspiration set "story interpolation" (middling term, admittedly). I love to use this slide from a talk Tarn gave at Northwestern's Progression Mechanics to illustrate the concept
