Disco Ball Funeral. Audio memories of Disco Ball, montaged with video footage of funeral speeches and respective interpretive dance. The process of uncovering the truth of Disco Ball’s death is emotionally chaotic, like any good funeral. Further, since his burial was improper, the piece serves as the synchreses of many different representations and memorials of him – in physical sculpture, video, sound, and dance. These themes originally arose from Disco Ball’s reflective and refractive nature, creative and connective reciprocity – he is more than the sum of his audience of friends, through time-transcendent glimmers.
