With the proliferation of video recording devices and the variety of ways in which to view video, the video artist's intent can get muddled. The initial experience of watching video meant for a large screen fluctuates greatly from seeing it on YouTube. For the inaugural exhibition of an annual series, the Museum of Pocket Art invites video artist to submit work with the intent of seeing work on a mobile device.

Christopher's aim is to create a visual language that captures the ectoplasmic
echoes existing between laughter and death, the space between erasure and
presence, the conflict between the singular and multiplicity, the uncanny ability of
the comedic to show the vulnerable, the horrific, the morbid, the schizophrenic,
and the ghostly, all at the same blurring moment in time.
This exhibition will "employ" the standard business card as a jumping-off point for an exuberant skewering and subversion of corporate language and structure.
