I performed an a/v set with an 8 foot weather balloon for the
opening of Edge of Light, an exhibition curated by
Jonathan Sims for HoloCenter. The opening performances were
curated by Testu Collective. The opening took place on December
3 and our performances were streamed online.
This was my first time incorporating this large spherical
balloon into a live performance with analog video synthesis. I
found that I was able to create a variety of weather patterns,
as one might see on the surface of a gas giant planet.

On Sunday, November 15, I performed a collaborative a/v set with
Andrei Jay, which was livestreamed as part of Vidicon. This year
was the second edition of Vidicon, and due to the pandemic, it
took place entirely online, with performances by many wonderful
video artists and friends. The set I played with Andrei was
enjoyably eccentric. My favorite part was performing on musical
saw while video of me was being processed through a slit scan
frame buffer. We had a lot of fun! Additionally, the
scanlines.xyz
team and I were able to contribute to the festival's video
streaming and chat infrastructure, to help create an online
venue independent from major social media sites and platforms.

style news broadcast into an echoing void of infinite recursion.
We streamed live from the

On Thursday, October 1, I did a live a/v performance at
Interval II, an event combining music and video,
sculpture, and dance, curated by
Testu Collective
and held on the open-air rooftop of
Synesthesia. I greatly appreciate the organizers' ability to manifest a
physical gathering while maintaining safe pandemic practices. It
was wonderful to experience performances by fellow artists
ÉMU (Maria Takeuchi),
Impakt,
Testu Collective,
Yoko Murakami, and
Will Atkins
beneath the full moon.
