"Formally, I see myself as a participant and investigator in the realm of new media art as it exists on the web. The Web in its binary aspect mirrors the process of choice-making by which we navigate our environments, making it an ideal medium to discuss issues relating to the realm of subjective experience. Conceptually my work derives from and revolves around my unchanging curiosity about the nature of identity and consciousness. Through my work I attempt to address the difference between conscious and subconscious identity and drives. I orchestrate layers of history, including journal entries, sketches, written records, video, photographs, music, voice and general sound loops, resulting in a atmospheric investigation into states of being."
