I use DV camcorders, defective video equipment, and in-camera editing to record daily life, leaving room for technical error.  Superseded almost immediately by new products and hi-definition, these early formats remain under-estimated, aside from occasional trends toward nostalgia. Features like image stabilization and digital zoom foreshadowed the automated video technologies of today. The dawn of digital video was marked by lost footage. Before the cloud, we lived in fear of accidentally erasing memories, getting the tape stuck in the deck, or encountering an unexplained transfer error.  Now the files are more stable, and loss and fear appear elsewhere. 

You can see my work in publications and screenings such as Film Diary NYC, Dizzy TV, Lino Kino, Caesura Magazine, Analog Cookbook, Light Matter Film Festival, and Peripheries Experimental Film & Video Festival. Before moving to Iceland I worked many years for community media in New York. After studying film and anthropology, I received an MFA in Fine Art, and a fellowship from The American Academy in Rome & PennDesign. I've attended residencies in Finland, Iceland, and most recently, at Künstlerhaus Lukas as a scholarship resident.
