musical films these moments of narrative rupture become further ruptured for new meaning through video edited scores performed by untrained dancers projections of moving bodies gain real physicality as screens moving onstage performers enact looped dance phrases then mirror a film assemblage as continuous dance sequence eventually mediated as filmed subjects ourselves we simply dance together

video and installation food editor clementine paddleford wrote that the perfect soufflé responded with a rapturous half hushed sigh as it settled softly to melt and vanish in a moment like smoke or a dream let s be civil suggests a tenuous portrayal of domesticity both mundane and monumentalized by the presence of soufflé never learning much of the couple the seemingly fantastical rise and fall of the souffle and its reputation for potential disaster provide insight into the uncertainty permeating their home and bodies click to watch video excerpt before still 15 min performance before still

give in 7 min video with huff a given give in ordinary functions of the body become unsettled as they animate the transformation of man into beast we stumble upon a forest and witness two males at a campsite one in typical wilderness gear and the other crudely disguised as wolf they engage in a strange erotic ritual of heavy breath and exhausted collapse inspired by the simultaneous violence and tenderness of the childhood passing out game it remains unclear if the couple is absorbed in schoolyard nostalgia sadomasochistic role play or whether we are to submit to the fantasy of werewolf lore
