Daily Rut Performance Art

For UBC the media studies app.

I woke up one morning last year to a song Thom Yorke had released. The squelchy, emotional baseline and haunting vocals inspired me to make a performance art video that very moment. I was at a difficult, confusing point in my life and I used this to help it make more sense. The video was recorded in an hour and editing took about two more. The dance is a metaphor for creation, destruction and the rut I was in. While the themes might sound high minded, they were honest and revolved around specific events that were taking place in my life, or had already.
