Signal Remains, A Catalogue of the City's Afterimage, 2025

Signal Remains is a network of CRTs, LCDs, and screen-based devices collected from Baltimore and the greater DMV area. Many originated from former industrial and commercial sites, later restored and revived in collaboration with Baltimore television repair professional Calvin Adler. Using analog signal processing, generative animation, and hacked prosumer video gear from the 1980s and 1990s, the work traces the technological and industrial histories embedded in these materials. The installation reanimates Baltimore’s past through light and feedback, positioning each screen as both archive and collaborator in the city’s ongoing story of labor, obsolescence, and repair.
