Don't Forget Me, I Can't Hide It, Thomas H. Morrill May 2020

Don't Forget Me, I Can't Hide It, Thomas H. Morrill

Theses and Dissertations

Memory, technology, and space are the metaphorical and material players in my work. The video represents an emerging consciousness stuck in a nostalgia-laced, self-referential, emotive loop. It weighs the probability of its experience of life as solipsism. The walls are facsimiles of walls.

Feminism And The Staged Uncanny, Jessica C. Mensch

Theses and Dissertations
