The Giver of Names: Documentary Collection

Installation views

The video and photographs are representative of how the work appeared in this particular iteration, giving a general sense of the way the elements were arranged within the space, how one ideally would interact with the work, and the sound and speed of the computer. The video was shot by Andrea L. Kuchembuck and Matthew Biederman and edited by Caitlin Jones. The photographs are by Paul Kuranko.
