Love Beach
A day to celebrate the family of humankind.
Going for a walk. Making a sign. Remixing food. Inverting audience & stage. Cheetos. With these social engagement and public activity works, I try to empower participants to express identity.
A day to celebrate the family of humankind.
In 2017 I became the Jane’s Walk City Organizer for Los Angeles. I led walks in New Taipei & Venice.
Inspired by Burger King’s food mashup “Mac ‘n Cheetos”, Alyssa Arney and I curated an exhibition focusing on shame, repulsion, and capitalist over-consumption run amok.
For my portion of Philosophy in the Bedroom with Sheree Rose, Rhiannon Aarons and Martin O’Brien, I brought 4,000, 1-inch-diameter, orange, cheese balls and performed a monologue about the perils of green food.
Teammates Samy Kamkar, Natalia Fedner, Sharon Gong, David Wang, Joseph Kan, Susan Zhang, Vivia Liu and I explored the new space of Ephemeral Wayfinding and created the product Compass H2O. Project Website: Compass H2O Presentation Slides:
I produced a new media / mixed reality performance evening Mixed Reality Cabaret at Long Beach State University’s University Theatre. The evening featured new documentary, music, and performance works in the University Theatre and in the virtual world Second Life.
