A Perfect Day

is comprised of two parts: a high-frequency radio transmission of a song, and an accompanying book. The song, entitled A Perfect Day, was written by Carrie Jacobs Bond in 1910 and is sung, a capella, by me. Through the use of high-frequency radio, the transmission reaches outer space. The book contains the lyrics of the song as well as a visual translation of the transmission, in the form of radio waves.

93.7

is a narrative print-based work that includes text (song lyrics, rodeo statistics, country chart listings, horse lineages) and images. It appears in an interdisciplinary journal called inter/tidal. The story presented alludes to my secret love of country music, and tells of my thirteenth birthday party, including a drive with my father to the suburbs of Vancouver to rent a karaoke machine for the event.

Contenders

is an ongoing video work consisting showing screenshots of television show The Bachelor. Each image shows a different runner-up contestant at the very moment she is informed that she’s lost both the competition and love of the man who's affection she’s been fighting for. The silent video shows the images in chronological order, each for 10 seconds, and uses the Ken Burns effect. As a new season airs and is completed, another image is added on to the end of the video.
