Host of 112 BK for BRIC TV interviews me about The World Contained II video screening at BRIC | Arts Media, downtown Brooklyn, on January 22, 2018.

In concert with a screening of The World Contained II video animation (a collaboration with Lianne Arnold and Elisheba Ittoop), I had the opportunity through BRIC Radio at BRIC Arts | Media in downtown Brooklyn, to have a conversation about the project with independent journalist Alexis Madrigal. You can access our conversation at this link. Madrigal has also produced his own 8-part podcast titled Containers on Sound Cloud. “It looks at how global trade really works and the people who do the labor of moving stuff.”
