About Parallel
Parallel is a "richly layered experimental video exploring ideas about time and the parallel universe" in which fragments of public domain footage and sound are combined with the artist's own images to create a "fast-paced and colorful journey".
Parallel premiered at ArcheTime: Cross-Disciplinary Conference/Exhibition/Film Festival 2010 presented by The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts in New York City.
