Fire and Water

(in progress)

Description:

Fire and Water is based historically in Italian Opera, it has all of the aspects of the difficulties of love as well as the power. Fire and Water was originally designed and built between 1990 and 1993 and stored the script was finished in 2004 while an Athena Fellow with Mark Di Suvero.

The multimedia details of the piece had to be reconfigured from analogue to a digital platform as well I have been revising the poetic verse. The final version may include an element of interactivity that will alter all of the visuals live. I'm now looking for the opportunity to perform Fire and Water.

Silverman

Identity

Description:

Silverman is an ongoing collaborative project between my brother Greg Whittaker and I. It has been performed in New York City and in Texas. The second Silverman performance took place on 42nd Street, at Rockefeller Center and in Soho on September 1, 1999.

Silverman is purely resonant of the contemporary culture’s fascination with branding and the digital environment, Silverman was essentially an icon for the new millennium.
