Installations
NERVOSA V. 1 (2018/2019)
"Nervosa" is a developing collaborative installation, with the first opening on November 29th, 2018, at California Institute of the Arts. For Version 1, I created a human sculpture and projection-mapped abstract videographics around it, while my collaborator Nathan Ho composed sound to mimic EVP and "spirit box" recordings that were played on a speaker hidden inside the sculpture. The installation is a ghostly, immortal figure that never truly degrades, whispering things you can never fully decipher--a physical manifestation of a taboo subject.
V. 1 was displayed in a public hallway with no reception, allowing the viewer to just stumble upon it. Future iterations are still in development.

THE LAST GRAVITY CAR (2018)
"The Last Gravity Car" was an interactive installation/dark ride operating on June 22, 2018 in Northgate Mall, San Rafael.
Over the course of a month, we transform several dressing rooms in a vacant Gap store into a dark ride based on Marin County urban legend/mythos and Mt. Tamalpais paranormal history.
Producer: Josh Cardenas
Story, Design, Research, and Construction: Marley Townsend

BOX PACIFIC (2017)
"Box Pacific" was a multi-channel light and space installation in A404 (Black and White Studio) at California Institute of the Arts, installed until Nov. 17, 2017. It revolves around the concept of the ocean as the Earth's last great fantasy landscape--our heaven and our underworld simultaneously. Consisting of a long-throw projector, two pedestals, and a 20-gallon fish-tank of water and bubbles, it projects a warped, ever shifting video of vivid sea life onto a large curved wall. The video is then projected four other times due to reflections--onto the bubbles, the walls of the glass tank, and the electrical boxes in the back of the room. Flashes of distorted light and color reflect further off of the bubbles and surface of the water.
