SOPHIA LAMAR INSULTING?

Featuring Sophia Lamar.
Video installation by Daniel McKernan.
Premiering at MIX 21 The New York Queer Experimental Film Festival

An interactive video installation featuring Sophia Lamar, which is a dark comedic reinterpretation of the classic fortune-telling children's toy, the Magic 8-Ball. After asking a yes-or-no question, the viewer presses the "H8" button of the piece; Sophia's floating head appears and reads the fortune in her infamously hateful & insulting manner. Special thanks to Burle Avant, Ned Stresen-Reuter, Mikey Lamar and Evan Monster.
