Plot

A continuously running installation of two video monitors on pedestals, overlooked by a green Kit-Cat clock. A small and large monitor display two different video collages of footage from the Emerald Square Mall and the strike during its 1989 construction with interferences of Channel J's Emerald City TV (1976-1979): the self-proclaimed "world’s first television show for gay men and women", Huge Video's Heat in the Night (1989), Genet's Un Chant D'Amour (1950), cigarette commercials, The Wizard of Oz, and a performance of a mylar-clad figure wrapping up the television in videotape.
