I believe the work represented here exists in a terminal; a point of intersection between various, disciplines, histories, and forms of critical study. Because this is a space where [ideas of] things both find an end as well as new directions in which to evolve, work conducted in this light usually involves critical reflection back upon itself and addresses the following:

1. The allowance of work to nominally exist as residual items of creation. (whether within artistic zones or not remains a matter of subjectivity as well as context.)
2. Permitting oneself to create in the accordance of a teleological structure that remains unchallenged.
3. To construct identities for things that they may not be (or need to be.)

Formal analysis may seem to produce a cohesive form of communication. I find that what results as a use of this method is a system of independently developed dialects in which content is privileged over subject matter. It is because of this belief that, I suggest a discursive view be taken when viewing/thinking about these things.
