Friends of Orbit Bright – a racistly-white parody site promoting chewing gum and chastity (sex!). Painfully obvious perpetual brand placements. It's aimed at (post-)tweeners who believe in god but want to get laid.
Outlook Theatre – a car made glamorous through association with video vignettes of a perfect family and immaculate romantic moments. Light fluffy and efficient consumer waltz. It's aimed at the wife archetype who wishes she could drive away.
UFC66 – an Ultra fighting championship labyrinth full of snarling warriors and big time money. It's aimed at soldiers, the dispossessed and anyone who needs to fight just to survive. The myth of a champion is needed only by the defeated and oppressed.

"They decide to meet up, but in an attempt to keep their interaction interesting, they make a pact to not speak to one another. As their romance develops, they only write, draw, email, text, have sex, instant message, and make videos for each other. No talking."

As I was coming home tonight, at 319 Main St, Vancouver, a window was being projected on from inside and it was playing excerpts from:
the 1995 PBS series United States of Poetry
What is this place on main st? I like it but the doors were locked.

Rokeby 2001 -- Machine for Taking Time
"Every day since March 28, 2001, the system has been taking still images from 1079 pre-determined positions along a sweeping path around the garden."

"This work remembers. It creates layers of the history of the space, recombining disparate topics from consumer housewares to medical technology back into one study of a specific location."
