an ipod touch.
Description:
When the Doctor came out to update my Mother and Wife about my surgery He said, "When I cut into his spinal column, a piece of his disc the size of a gum-ball popped out. I thought his words were a telling metaphor for a ruptured disc. So I placed foam discs between each plastic vertebra, compressed. Between two of them, at the position of my surgery, a looped video of a bubble being blown till popped plays.

Regimen
Title: Regimen (working)
Size: Dimensions variable
Date: 12-2010
Materials: Plastic and acrylic paint.
Description:
This is a small part of a larger piece. It is the representation of two days of the pills I took the month of my back surgery. As the installation builds, my daily regimen of pills seems to line up like an regimen of soldiers. The final version will have all 31 days represented. It will be 62 feet long and have 676 pills. I have made plastic pill bugs, painted the exact color of the pills I took, that sit on 676 plastic tongues that protrude from the wall.

Backboard
Title: Backboard
Size: 6’ X 1’6” X1’2”
Date: 10-2010
Materials: Plastic, steel, and acrylic resin.
Description:
This started as a simple play on the word backboard but, after having to be picked-up off the floor and taken to the ER by a former soldier, I understand how helpless you feel when your on one of these. For about five weeks I was laid-up. I didn't have the ability to stand, let alone make a lay-up, so I made changes rendering the rim and net as useless as I felt.
