interactive machines reminiscent of outdated technology

My current body of work examines how the development of the online social world is affecting identity and social behavior. By creating interactive machines reminiscent of outdated technology, I address the contradictions present in various social media that are at once ephemeral and entirely permanent. Interactivity and the vocabulary of minimalist sculpture are key elements of my installations that challenge the viewer to look beyond the user-friendliness of online technology and consider what their participation in social media means.
