Facebook Trial
The month long trial was projected onto The (un) Consumable from three projectors. The projectors were attached to three computers that were placed on a single table in front of three empty chairs.
Dimensions of space: 25 x 15 x 13 ft

This is the only Facebook account I have ever held. For a month I created private accounts for three of my deceased relatives. Each page updated information current to the date, but ranged in year, location, and language– all existing on a single timeline. Those killed during the Bolshevik Revolution became the voices describing  the current weather in Boston, a meteor fall in Russia, or the intense match of Miracle on Ice.
