	How to accommodate grief in your life LMFS 2016 Digital video, 5:10, sound voice: Dead Horsley Happiness stained. All over. As the figure spins a voice speaks: to it, to us, to you. A super-egoic breaching of the echo-chamber. A reading of poetry invoking networked pathologies, image dumps, blockaded communication networks. An imagist and splenetic journey through griefing as counter-protocol in our contemporary digital agora. This work explores laterally the subcultural phenomenon of griefing within online culture, posing modes of image-gathering that grief play has generated in the now ‘dead end’ world of Second Life, a Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) environment. Using screen capture alongside photogrammetry we documented a world built and razed digitally by a now dormant group of anonymous gamers called the Yung Cum Bois (YCBs). A is for Frontline

	Common Conduct LMFS 2013, Digital Video, 8:04 with live reading. screening 8pm 6th Feb 2015 Atomic Pictures Le Shakirail, 2 Rue Riquet 75018 Paris Le troisième volet d’Atomic Pictures réunit quatre voix d’artistes et joue avec leur valeur off et on dans un programme qui restitue l’état du monde selon différentes visions. Confrontés aux limites de leur propre création, les artistes y semblent pris dans un mouvement d’aller-retour insensé.Ce constat d’échec semble pourtant paradoxalement réaffirmer toute la puissance de l’art là où il est question de désenchantement. C’est au beau milieu d’un univers se référant aux sciences, à l’art ou à la politique, que seule la voix de l’artiste semble résister aux déceptions représentées à l’écran. Avec: Ian James, Jasmine Johnson, Francis Summers & Louisa Minkin et Mikolaj Tkasz Common Conduct Who is the Common Intellectual? A day event of propositions and demonstrations that launches and celebrates Copypress and its endeavours. Saturday 25th May 2013 Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London
