Video Projection, 2005. This quick, condensed and perceptually active artwork presents a scene whose content literally hangs in the air. ( ( ( vvvvvvvv ) ) ) is an intense video environment in which viewers engage with a parallel representation of the world. This DVD projection is comprised of an aerial view of a printed cartoon city, full of wandering sky movements, occasional reminders of gravity, and an enveloping soundtrack of droning voices. The title of this artwork is meant to allude to the vocalized sound of shivering, a way of grounding it within the physical.
