Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. —Arthur C. Clarke

What I do

My work reflects how I see the world in the sense of what I know and explores the bones of technology through a variety of mediums and concepts.  The superstition of gods and spirits forwarded to the Computer Age —  totems that remind us of where we have been and what powers we can grasp with faith.  Just as shamans of ancient times acted as the conduit between the Worlds of Mystery and the here and now, the new Shamans of Technology explain the mysteries of circuitry, software and the Interface. Life is too short to be EXTREMELY serious. Relax. Stop and smell the roses.
