photo
brent's light series of digital
abstractions is a photographic catechization of street lights captured
at night while driving. these electric kool-aid impressions of light are
meant to serve as projective meditations. an extensive gallery of recent
work can be found on
paris-kyoto. archival prints from this series are limited to
editions of three.
video
brent's epileptic video manipulations employ accidental micro-editing to
induce subliminal bursts of mangled video projections. live hypermixing
is applied to deface commercial media into streams of video abstractions
contaminated with the artifacts of consumerism. this work is a
reflection of the love-hate relationship between people and television.
it is formally presented as a videobox or immersive installation. copyrights are available to collectors.
noise
brent has participated in several
experimental audio projects, including diamond shamrock, lone rats,
various uknowns
and as producer of the noise kills punk dead compilation.
