Statement: An avatar is an incarnation of the divine on Earth. As we have adapted this principle to technology, it has become a machine-mediated icon of layered identity, reinforcing personal mythologies and ideals. I will prove the mediation of technology to be one-sided, rendering impossible the transcendence and dissolution of ideals through the act of love.

In this experimental documentary, I explored the phenomenon of online correspondence and our ability to feel emotion through machines. I employed a layered process of remediation, generating animations combined with raw footage, projecting them over live performance and re-enhancing them in yet more post-production. The story is a highly personal narrative, translated into a ?virtually? universal experience of currently burgeoning developments in cyber networking.
