i know no time when we were not as now

Welcome to the internet home base for my thesis project titled "I know no time when we were not as now."

You'll find video clips, songs, essays and information regarding this multimedia project here.

"I know no time..." is an experiential project to consider time and temporality via the mediums of film, sculpture, sound, music, light, space, installation, performance, experimental electronics and interactivity.

--The first component of "I know no time..." is an experiential installation. It will be exhibited at Hampshire College's Main Gallery from March 22nd-March 30th. There will be musical performances every evening and a larger reception on March 28th from 5pm-9pm. The gallery will be open from 9AM-11PM every night during the course of its exhibition.

--The second component of "I know no time..." is an album of recorded music, to be distributed from the gallery and played live, in some fashion, every night of the exhibit.

--The third component of the project will be a 30 page essay discussing experiential works and the relationship art has/should have to contemporary concepts/philosophies of time, contemporary psychology and new/metaphysics.

--The work will culminate into a 30-minute film/video, the fourth and final component, that not only documents the work but expands upon the concepts discussed within the essay.
