I am intrigued with the relationship between the post modern concept of identity and behavioral adaptation. The adoption of an identity creates a system of rules for the individual and group. People enjoy attaching their name to an idea that is culturally defined according to the environment. (That being Mexican, Texan, Black, Nigger, Blonde, Hispanic, Hispano, Minority, Majority, among many- but some like to belong and follow the rules of a group)
The Long Count recollects past identities in a participatory technological game. Her project investigates the artist’s roles and spaces throughout her migratory existence. With the aid of technology, we become part of the piece.
