Music video I produced for Anitek’s track Access from his album Calm & Collect Vol. 1. [free download]
An attempt to reclaim my sensuality. Too often female eroticism in the media is represented through the male perspective or “male gaze”. By being the only person in the video, producing the video, and editing the video, I experiment with my own erotic self representation.

Sometimes my (lack of) management skills gives me quite a bit of anxiety. I forget how dependent I am on organized folks. I feel like evaporating steam waiting to get caught and used by someone else’s steam machine.

ejhill.tumblr took part in the annual Gala organised by Marina Abramović at The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in November 2011:
“For a total of about four hours, I was the most powerful person at my table. I watched as the wealthiest people I’ve never met, reluctantly took seats around me. First, their faces showed signs of stunned disbelief as they entered the space. Second, the awkward laughs and iPhone photos came, then it was confused and forced smiles as they sat down. Finally, came the extreme discomfort from the reality of the situation—they would actually have to eat in front of us. But interestingly enough, in a very rare and beautiful moment, the power dynamics that have existed for hundreds of years between artists and the wealthy had been reversed. The performance lasted only a few hours, but during those few hours, from a seemingly degraded position, I silently dictated an entire conversation. I was able to halt people mid-sentence by slowly turning and locking in on any one of the individuals at my table. They fumbled with their forks, stuttered on words and took out their phones to read invisible text messages. They employed all sorts of techniques to distract themselves in order to ease the tension. Periodically, someone would shake their head in contempt and frustration. Some only ate while I was turned away from them while others got up and left the table entirely.” Read more here

CHYEAAAAAAA. Won first place for the UBC Arts ISIT Videography Competition! The theme of the competition is to address how technology has affected my learning and education at UBC. Well, and of course… the first symbol that came to my mind was LIGHT. Plus, it’s super fun to play with lighting with a camera. Everything about this project fell into place beautifully. First, I saw the posting for the competition, and I thought about the possible shots I could do with the laptop flashing onto my face. A few days later K-Rec sent me this beat he made using a sample from the demo version of Kate Bush’s “Oh, To Be in Love”. I was listening to the beat while I was taking the skytrain, looking out into the city, squinting into the rhythmic light beams from the sun when I was like “A-ha! I’m gonna use Plato’s cave allegory for my video!” I spent about 2 weeks thinking about the concept of the video with my friend, Vania, and possible scenes to illustrate the symbols of Plato’s cave allegory and technology. The shooting took a full day. We used a Canon Rebel T2i with a 18-55mm lens. We shot on New Year’s Eve and that’s how we were able to get that emptiness look at UBC. We used Final Cut Pro 7 and FxFactory Pro to edit and filter our video. The editing took about 2 days (roughly 12 hours including render time).
Man, things have been HAPPENING! I found out I won this competition the same day I was applying for a DOXA Documentary Film Festival workshop for young females in filmmaking. Stoked much?
The metaphor of the sun as a source of illumination through Plato’s cave allegory has been crucial to my Arts education at UBC. Plato’s allegory of the cave illuminated my relationship with learning and knowledge. The evolution of technology from fire to computers has changed the way our minds become illuminated from the unknown. The Internet has transformed the way knowledge is shared. From books to images of books on the Internet, from linear pages to networks of hyperlinks, from classrooms to cyberspace, from class discussions to social media discussions, from a text-based version of Plato’s cave allegory to a multimedia version, computers have become my portal to knowledge, or the light, even when I am inside the cave, or in the comfort of my own home. I no longer need to physically be at UBC to ascend from the cave. All I need to do is log on to my Campus Wide Log-on from my computer to access a wealth of knowledge. The light from my computer illuminates me and provides opportunity for growth and nurture much like the sun. Throughout my Arts education, the material I learn is often shocking at first, but eventually I learn to appreciate being freed from illusions and blessed by epiphanies. Through the computer screen, I am able to learn, share and reflect on my learning so I am able to apply my knowledge when I descend back to the cave, or graduate from UBC.
