Judson Building, January 2007


I mixed two channels of video for this project-- a series of still photos of top-notch graffiti found inside the building, and an animation of fiesta candy captured frame-by-frame on the scanner. The colorful pulsating imagery alluded, again, to the history of the place both as a literal candy factory as well as its more recent use in its vacant state as a repository of eye-candy.

The San Antonio ice storm delayed this project enough to make it fortuitously coincide with the screening of Bill Daniel's "Who Is Bozo Texino," at the 1906 complex.



Here's a shot of Bill & I meeting, with Anjali Gupta present. For more shots taken by Justin Parr: check out: Future Worker Girl works over the ghosts of Judson Candy Company
