“Spectrum Song” (2018) is a video installation that unfolds across eight sequential macOS desktops, each customized with a background color corresponding to the original Gilbert Baker Pride flag and its associated meanings. This symbolic structure serves as the visual and conceptual framework for the piece, where images and videos extracted from daily life flicker, resize, and rearrange, mirroring the temporary nature of the rainbow itself. The mundane objects depicted—bedding, clothing, furniture—transform from consumer products into reflections of the self, highlighting the interplay between personal identity and the mediated world of screens. The “song” tapers out with a video of iridescent rainbows in a pot of rice steaming on the stovetop.
