Trans-temporal drag, sexuality and the re-staging of illegible moments in history.

Are artists powerless in the face of technology? These often whimsical and amusing films are minimal technological interventions and appropriations but maybe also rigorous takes on the role of popular media and culture in our hyper-technological world.
