Singer's videos combine disparate elements of text, music, image,
and spoken word in an effort to disrupt the conventional ways in
which we see things--crystalline images appear in momentary flashes
only to be obliterated in sudden narrative shifts.
In Singer's videos, the poetic is always at the mercy of
cinematic fracture. Working
digitally, Singer allows the computer to dictate the creative process.
For Work, he ups the ante; he will present unedited work
online and will allow the viewer to assist in further edits; the
new edits will be posted online for all to see.
By collaborating with strangers, Singer relinquishes control
of the creative process altogether-the results
are anyone's guess.
