A dis-house-jointed (2001), reveals the sense of alienation, memory, location, and culture in online experience. I contrast individuals’ uniqueness (or American memories) against cold, interior American landscapes in the site. By layering surprising transitions between images and sounds against text describing fragments of memories, I simultaneously challenge the viewer to recall individuals despite their absence from the uninhabited, generic images, and to consider their experiences both on and offline.
