Description: In preparation for a reading by zine writers put on by Kearny Street Workshop and Locus Arts, I created a personal audio piece based on my journal writing. Bob Hsiang helped me pull together images I could show in a timed slide show to accompany the piece, which was mixed with music. What resulted was a powerful piece exploring my identity and the similarities between the Asian American movement and punk rock.

After the reading, someone encouraged me to drop it all into some video editing and with Paul Jaffe‘s help, the video premiered at KSW’s APAture. It also links to my existing body of work online.
