Calaveras en Mi Ciudad is an annual mobile art exhibit that celebrates and pays tribute to Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), a holiday and day of remembrance in Mexico. The exhibit is a collaboration with Latino artists who were invited to participate: Anthony Garcia Sr., Armando Silva, Chelsea Lewinski, Juls Mendoza, Karma Leigh, Norberto Mojardin, Xencs L. Wing, Charlo G. Walterbach, Bimmer Torres, and Spaik, all who hand-painted the calaveras. The original papier-mâché mold of the calaveras was created by artist Ricardo Soltero.

"Colorado" is a generative animation that captures the essence of its landscapes through a digital lens. With hypnotic movements and seamless transitions, the work blurs boundaries between the recognizable and the abstract. It serves as a contemplation on the dance between the organic and the digital realm.

Colorado residents and visitors alike experience the blue of distance when we look to the Rockies, calling wanderers to tour the many trails the mountains offer. Upon arriving at one’s destination, the longing for the blue of distance is hushed, and we are met with the closeness of color: yellow and purple flowers, a spectrum of green lichen on red rock, orange moths, and copper elk. Using a blend of inherently blue cyanotypes and digital color video evokes this colorful transformation of near and far.

Gone to Swim celebrates Denver Digerati's eighth anniversary of curating explorative animation. This 3D computer-generated animation honors its’ legacy by reminding us to embrace the present moment and the natural environment surrounding us. This piece draws inspiration from the meandering banks of Cherry Creek and the South Platte River that runs through the heart of Denver's landscape. The two fantastical critters basking in the water remind us to relish in the natural splendors that enrich our lives—inviting us to immerse ourselves in the passing moment. This artwork is curated and part of the Digerati Emergent Media Festival - Welcome to the Here and Now 2023.

In the current world of AI, time unfurls its wings in a frenetic dance, each second pregnant with innovation and transformation. The relentless cadence of progress propels us forward, where days blur into mere moments, and months yield revelations that once spanned centuries. In this accelerated chronicle, the dawn of a new era occurs with each algorithmic heartbeat. Concepts are born, nurtured, and matured in a matter of fleeting thought cycles. The very pace of existence seems to mirror the exponential growth of computational power, propelling us into a future that beckons us to keep pace or risk becoming echoes in its slipstream. As we ride this rapid current, we must seize the fleeting moments, for opportunities are as transient as digital whispers. The old adage "time is of the essence" takes on a new meaning, for here, time is the essence—a volatile currency exchanged for unprecedented leaps in understanding and capability. I love creating fantasy worlds and abstract characters in surreal settings. —Vince Fraser.

“Juicy Squish” is an app-based multimedia project which lovingly pokes fun at gamified design in digital culture today. It uses the aesthetics found in internet and videogame culture and is interested in how emotions operate and are communicated within these spaces. Taking inspiration from fidget toys, idle games and ASMR apps, the game has no inherent goals or achievements. Instead, the player is faced with a simple interaction in which they can engage with for any amount of time. Playing with these simulations creates awkward audiovisual scenarios that riff off emoticons and collectible rewards, digital candy. There is a series of six app episodes that comprise the software portion of the installation. Each episode has a variation on the theme with different characters and discoverables. Encompassing the apps is a web campaign which spans over a mobile-only website, social media and popular mobile app stores. These software-based projects are a starting point for digital or physical installations that seek to create pseudo subcultural paraphernalia taking inspiration from mobile devices and electronics storefronts or video game convention displays. Video, vinyl stickers, 3D fabrication, ready-made mobile devices, interactive apps, and advertising signage techniques are some of the materials "Juicy Squish" turns to in this exploration.
