For One and For All
2015

Karaoke installation where a video built from the non-lyric sections of pop songs—from David Bowie to Destiny's Child—plays in endless loop front of a microphone. Headphones and sunglasses tempt egos and voices. Singers hear the song, but not themselves; viewers hear the singer, but not the song. Everyone can have beer. Fog appears and fades as the mirror ball turns overhead.
