What happens when memory is obfuscated?

The piece was approached as a non-linear and interactive narrative project. Like a film but the frames of a film printed, layered, and falling from the active printers as audiences walk into the room. A text was written and layered visually with the printed images. <Link to text here>

An interactive installation perforamnce that explores memory functions and traumatic events What happens when it all spits out? This project acts as a “DIY” therapy of recovering such memory. There are things about family and computers and the internet and Freud’s screen memory and a mapping of psychology.

Audiences interact with the printed falling pages while the printers are mic’d and amplified.
