"I'm interested in connecting the tangible to the intangible, creating intimacy between bodies and objects to investigate the stress in those relationships. Many of the themes I work with are extensions of human communication and embodied trauma. I enjoy investigating how technology can be a comfortable middleman or third party when processing the emotional impossibilities of humanity."

Bedtime stories is a direct application of this idea of technology as an unbiased (debatable!) middleman. Using the technical idea of servers as a way to create communication between people, while investigating language and the way we as individuals organize words.
