Iliad and Odyssey is a three-channel video installation consisting of simultaneous readings of Homer's epic poems. The piece is ongoing as artists and performers are asked to read one chapter of either text for the camera. Ultimately the entire text of each book will be read and the resulting tapes played on a large circular installation of video monitors. The texts are played in a random and overlapping fashion mimicking a hypertext application of information and asking the viewer to reconstruct the texts from their deconstructed parts.
