In 2006, I found myself squatting in Allen Ginsberg’s derelict East Village Apartment. The next two years of cohabitation occasioned a series of animations, collaborations with other artists, and ultimately a re-creation of the 1959 Robert Frank / Alfred Leslie film, “Pull My Daisy”. This recreation incorporates the tension between individual authorship, collaboration, and improvisation that defined the original production, and our original footage has evolved into an ongoing series of improvisational quasi-narrative performance/screenings between myself and musician Baby Copperhead.
