Brass Logic is an innovative and exciting marriage of dance and theater. This one-woman show is a modern-day Alice in Wonderland. However, instead of falling into a land of Queens and Jokers, Brass Logic's Alice is thrown into a matrix of technology and psychology. She's inside a video game, playing the lead character in the game of life. While being manipulated as the subject of the Mad Hatteršs experiment, Alice finds salvation within the soothing monologues of the Cheshire Cat. Meanwhile, the Newscaster throws her curve balls of corporate America, and the dormouse periodically wakes up to expel tragically comic one-liners. The piece is rich with original music and sound effects. The actress speaks through a microphone, playing five characters, and her voice is electronically manipulated live on stage. The changing of her body from character to character is a swiftly choreographed dance. The set and atmosphere are created almost completely by the lighting design. Brass Logic is an experience that stirs the heart and addresses a modern-day isolation stemming from the chasm between technology and touch.
Brass Logic was originally produced in January, 2002 in an old furniture warehouse in DUMBO, Brooklyn and had a second run at the Transparent Theater in Berkeley, California in January, 2003.

Vital In 2003 I made a short documentary about a gathering of artists that called themselves "Vital". Vital was experiment in leaderless community that spread word of mouth in New York City in 2000. There were 5 meetings, 3 of them were recorded. Now I am extending the documentary to include interviews with the artists at 5 years, 10 years and 20 years since the initial experience. I am hoping to capture how we've grown and changed as artists and as people.
