This position seeks to be playfully complicit in the translations of this particular designer's rare neurological sleep condition — one which operates mechanically in tandem with the re-pixelating, blending, and visioning of aforementioned machines. The plotting, scheming, storytelling, and ghost writing of these partners in c(h)rime(ra) become scenographically evident through the emergent works. As the neurological chemical deficiency makes muddy these conditions of waking and dreaming, the digital twin signs on to consider hybrid project inventions, prototyping with programs from other worlds i.e. fashion design, videogame design, etc., and the experiential potential for physical and digital environments design — prototyping cross-scalar, cross-sensory environments that resist resolution and embrace murk.

As parasomnic pals, myself and the machine, the work seeks subtle forms of resistance through texture, language, and layered atmospheres—questioning what kinds of bodies, authorships, and affects are rendered permissible. Ultimately, a multidisciplinary practice which engages mind, belly, and hand.
