- 03 BULK BIN
Video, Internet Site (CD-ROM/Book available)
http://bulkbin.banff.org
BULK BIN is a time-based web project that plays with the theme: SWEET CONSUMPTION.
A new video will be "broadcast" every weekday from April 28-May 23 2003.
Each week the videos take their cue from a specific word or concept dealing with sweet consumption. Like the candy found in bulk bins in the dusty basement of the sundries department, the work is unified only by the size of the container: a short video clip. For me, this project is an exercise in stamina: rigorous, relentless and ultimately disposable.

16mm. Hi8. (4 mins.) Producer, Director.
The kettle isn't working lately, maybe it's broken, maybe it's over used or maybe it's just naughty! This woman has found domestic bliss and no one's gonna take it away from her. Using a blend of appliance-sex-fantasy images, interrupted by scenes of domestic mudanity, "desire" asserts the potential of the absurd to fuck with ideological constructs of sexuality. You'll never watch porn the same way again.
