“Yet it is in this loneliness that the deepest activities begin. It is here that you discover act without motion, labor that is profound repose, vision in obscurity, and, beyond all desire, a fulfillment whose limits extend to infinity. I suppose what makes me most glad is that we all recognize each other in this metaphysical space of silence and happening, and get some sense, for a moment, that we are full of paradise without knowing it.” – Thomas Merton This project was inspired by Patrick Moberg’s MellowTron: stuffedrobot.com/images/public/regular/b233b0cac595646233a3f7947e622537.jpg Three days ago, I posted my cell phone number on my blog and asked people to anonymously call it and leave a voice message to the question: What is loneliness? Predominantly using digital stills manipulated in post, some video footage, and lo-fi audio recordings of messages from my cell phone, this was an attempt to make a coherent psychological discourse of strangers’ emotional dispositions, which resulted in a huge emotional investment. This was an extremely difficult question to answer, and I am so grateful to all who participated. Here are the messages transcribed: karenabad.tumblr.com/post/36237755/loneliness-is __________________________________________________________ This is, "Loneliness," the second installment of "Robot Feelings" videos.

On June 26th, 2008 I took a leap of faith and flew across the US to meet my vimeo friend Christopher. We went to the vimeo meet up in NYC, a wedding in Maryland, and a ton of other stuff. I brought my super8 camera and shot some of our journey (which involved a lot of driving). Filmed on Kodachrome Super 8 Color Reversal Film.

i try to do little things to make our planet healthier. like my new love of composting. i get a kick out of throwing banana peels and organic scraps into a big vat of stuff. just knowing that worms and other creatures are chomping on the decomposing matter and crapping it out creating luscious, nutrient rich soil makes me happy. yeah. i love the word luscious. let's say it again. luscious! i think i will try to incorporate the word luscious in every thing i say today.
