description
: Gesture Lesson is a single channel video work that explores the nature
of our contemporary disembodied gestures through physical performance,
digitally synthesized sound, and algorithmic imaging. The work investigates
the advancement, hybridization, and disappearance of the human gesture,
as it relates directly to our implementation and use of affordable emergent
technologies.
