My

` clothing items, to resemble clothing from residents in Auburn,
) :2.; WA. I would like to engage residents of Auburn to submit a
picture of an article of clothing that expresses their identity,
A"Ithen I will recreate pieces in ceramic form. Alternately, I can

wear, or any meaningful clothing theme. It is a collaborative
process, and the intent of the installation is to honor the
residents of the city.

• My work "Swarm" is an interactive digital portrait that captures the
faces of everyone who looks at it, blending and merging their faces
into a constantly evolving collage.
e • Swarm consists of a television screen mounted inside a picture
, frame disguised as a portrait. In the top of the portrait is a subtle
F
camera lens, where a computer mounted to the back of the portrait
snaps photos of guests. I use AI to identify faces, align, and merge
{ i
II them, creative a ghostly, engaging, creepy, and weird experience as
the collective consciousness of a place is samples and reproduced.
i • Swarm is a reflection of the way that technology companies create
"digital composites" of their users, hallucinating people who do not
exist in reality in their attempts to understand and ultimately profit
from their clients.
