Dreams of Flight is a two-channel video of an attempt to realize the power of flight -- the most wished for magical ability. In Dreams of Flight the actor jumps, and his image remains frozen in the first video at the apex of his trajectory. He then falls to earth in second video. He jumps again the second video, freezes, and falls to earth again in the first. The loop continues rhythmically, with the physical separation of the two screens serving as the momentary gap between the dream of flight and the pull of gravity.

Proyecto: Screen

Involving the use of traditional photography and digital poetry. It is an on-going project started in 2005, and it has continued to develop along the years, raising the curiosity of art connoisseurs. The idea behind SCREEN is to capture and document digital supports through traditional photography, and to envision how images themselves experience time, theoretically. SCREEN dissolves the chronocracy in a perpetual frozen present, while the human-machine bond is represented as a mechanism of mutual pleasure, in the astonished look of human eyes. The organic grain of film merges with the pixels, forming new skins and patterns. While crossing analogue lighting methods and digital colour palettes, the artist has created her own method and narrative categories.

Proyecto: Speech 1

"Speech 1" es una obra de videoarte experimental basada en las imágenes de una entrevista televisiva a Edward Kennedy del año 1974.

Este experimento audiovisual es un intento de aplicar, con las modificaciones necesarias, la técnica sonora de la Síntesis Granular sobre material audiovisual. En particular, se ha utilizado una variante de síntesis granular llamado Síntesis Granular Sincrónica.

Utilizando, y adaptando, esta técnica de síntesis sonora sobre la película, y utilizando también técnicas matemáticas (más en concreto, generadores congruenciales lineales para la generación de números pseudo aleatorios), la película original, que queda distribuida sobre tres pantallas, tres regiones, en la obra, es troceada, desordenada, fragmentada, repetida, etc. dando lugar a patrones multirítmicos -y visuales- típicos de este tipo de síntesis.

No se ha utilizado ninguna otra fuente sonora para crear los diferentes sonidos de la obra. Todo el sonido de la obra proviene del sonido original de la entrevista.
