Zoom Call With Ancestors, 2021
Video Loop
Using MyHeritage’s Deep Nostalgia tool, I animated photographs and paintings of some of my ancestors and myself, dating from the 16th century to the present, together in a Zoom-style grid. I created this piece to better understand its capability for learning more about ourselves and the possibilities for use or misuse.
