Calling on hitherto unpublished documents and numerous first-hand accounts from victims, farmers and prominent scientists and politicians, The World According to Monsanto puts together the pieces of the history of this corporate giant which is tightening its grasp on the world seed market, but styles itself as a “life sciences company” that simply wants to solve world hunger while protecting the environment.

Various permutations and combinations of Abraham Zapruder's 8mm home movie footage of the assassination of JFK. My work is intended as an investigation of the footage as a visual, experiential, and cultural document. In the United States this footage is both notorious and invisible; seldom actually seen, it is very well known; when seen, it remains opaque. This work is intended to add a level of "transparency" to the original. It is set to Jajouka music in order to bring to the foreground the ritual aspects of this visual, mechanical, and media historical event. 6th Independent Vídeo & Interactive Phenomena Show

A litany of events followed: American missionaries preached unfamiliar ideas and customs; sugarcane and pineapple plantations absorbed individual farmlands; waves of immigrant workers arrived, making Hawaiians a minority in their own land; and WWII brought a lasting military presence. University of Hawaii sociologists estimate that the extinction of full-blooded Hawaiians could come within the next 45 years. To millions of travellers the world over, Hawaii is an alluring picture-postcard paradise. But to its Native Hawaiian people, nothing could be further from the truth.
