IMMORAL ALIENS OF ALL GALAXIES DISBAND (YOU CAN DANCE IF YOU WANT TO) (2006)
Wearing a pink hoodie, the performance begins by walking into a room and turning on a DJ-Disco Ball.
Next, lift up the 4' x 4' dance floor (adjacent to the DJ-Disco Ball) and lay under it.
After things are in place (dance floor on top of artist and pink hoodie covering artist's head) begin singing the song "Pink Elephants On Parade" (lyrics included below) from the movie DUMBO.
Sing the song repeatedly for as along as possible.
The performance ends when artist is unable to sing.
Pink Elephants On Parade Look out! Look out! Pink elephants on parade Here they come! Hippety hoppety They're here and there Pink elephants ev'rywher "Look out! Look out!" They're walking around the bed On their head Clippety cloppety Arrayed in braid Pink elephants on parade What'll I do? What'll I do? What an unusual view! I could stand the sight of worms And look at microscopic germs But technicolor pachyderms Is really too much for me I am not the type to faint When things are odd or things are quaint But seeing things you know that ain't Can certainly give you an awful fright! What a sight! Chase 'em away! Chase 'em away! I'm afraid need your aid Pink elephants on parade! Pink elephants! Pink elephants!

ASSASSINATION FOR ANAMNESIS (part 2)- WHO NEEDS A DeLOREAN WHEN THERE'S STOMACH LINING TO TEAR? (2007)
Crochet the longest line the exhibition space allows by connecting a corner of the space to the opposite corner.
Use an 11.5 mm size crochet hook.
Use only found, scrap yarn, changing color and/or texture only when current yarn in use runs out.
The crocheted piece is as wide as the performer's natural stance; any crochet pattern will do.
Use the growing length of the crocheted piece as a regulator of movement through the space towards the opposite corner.
Do not initiate conversation with viewer(s). However, if conversation is initiated by viewer(s), stop crocheting for as long the social interaction lasts. When the social interaction ceases, continue crocheting.
Crochet each day from 9am until 6pm with an hour lunch break from 12pm until 1pm.
While crocheting spend each moment remembering the self's history(ies).
Performance ends for one of three reasons: a) found/scrap yarn runs out; b) space runs out; c) exhibition comes to an end.
