The installation is constructed entirely from salvaged, discarded CRT televisions repaired, and assembled by hand into a single composite organism mounted on the wall. The screens cluster asymmetrically and cables spill outward like veins suggesting a visible circulatory logic of a living thing. Cameras were embedded within the structure functioned as eyes. Rather than mirroring viewers directly, the system captured the residue of a presence passing through space. This live feed was woven together with fragments of personal memory, causing the organism to oscillate between its own interiority and an outward attention: between remembering and watching. The site itself is important to the work. Installed in a dim, basement space, the organism inhabits a place that already speaks of containment and access. The work proposes the self not as something that can be copied cleanly into the digital, but as a Frankenstein translation that is assembled from obsolescence. All visual systems were developed live using TouchDesigner and Python.
