How to Build a Fire: Amy, Mike, Josh, Lori and Ross, 2024. 13m 39s.

This video by Kerri Flannigan grew out of anxieties about climate change and curiosities about wildfire.

GHOSTS, Max Dooher, 2024. 5m 26s.

GHOSTS is an experimental short film that examines the spectral nature of digital surveillance through a fragmented digital montage.

Circles, Sarah Houle, 2024. 4m 24s.

Circles is grounded in the Cree teaching of closing circles after opening them and using this concept as a practical and spiritual practice for balance and peace; reflecting on universal questions of where we come from and where.

"dream zones hormones undertones fish bones" by Daze Jefferies (12m 30s) explores intergenerational connections and hope for the future among trans femmes on the internet, at the turn of the millennium, in Atlantic Canada.

"Dismembered fixations" by Francisco González-Rosas, (5m 36s) is a video monologue that conveys a subjective account about the way queer and racialized identities are commodified and showcased as spectacle in mainstream media.

Jacinte Armstrong is taking up residence at Struts from January 21 - 31. She is exploring VR as experience for a player but also as a motor for performance for groups of people. She is looking for members of the public who are interested in helping her test out her experiments in virtual reality.
