Collection of Union Street Gallery, Chicago Heights, Illinois

Digital photo, digitally scanned wire, sampled & synthesized sound, animation

Geometric slashes of white accent a spattered abstract background of yellows and blues. Against this background an animated wire swings in a narrow arc. In the audio, a mixture of indisinct, abstracted voices provides a background for the sound of a single snare drum. A final element of text--If-then-Assume-Nothing--carries implications of narrative, commentary, character, causality, interpretation.
