Artist Statement 

Consumer technology is often discarded before its time is truly up. Televisions, an integral part of our daily lives, are often thought to be utilitarian and mundane but when pushed beyond their intended purpose they can be used to create something more. When grouped together they can create something new. Through the manipulation of analog signal paths and the repurposing of savaged television sets I aim to evoke a sense of nostalgia while challenging conventional thought about both media and obsolete technology.
