Fragments is an ongoing series of short videotapes ranging in length from six seconds to two minutes. Without opening titles or end credits, each 'fragment' is designed to work off of other videotapes, no two tapes in the series should be shown next to each other.

These tapes can be seen as small drawings or sketches, bringing together pieces of ideas, overheard conversation and glimpsed images. They can also be seen, because of their structure and length, as advertising that doesn't sell anything.

Available titles include: Belong 1:00, Desire 00:44, Fly 00:35, Apple 00:07, All 00:15, Jump 1:10
