About the Book
Beat is a collected series of prose panels for a theoretical gallery exhibition, which reference the existential loss of history, and the people we have become, forever left in its vacuum. Beat is a sequence of graphic poetry. Each page in Beat is individual work of art. The book itself is a singular work of art.

The published works function as Exhibition Novels, a format that offers a catalog of visual art embedded in all manner of narrative invention. The collections of short stories and limited-edition graphic novellas attempt participation in a literary esthetic that sifts through existential conflicts of media-narrative and the representation of the self in historical time. The feature-length novels are immersive and cinematic sagas fusing historical non-fiction with metaphysical invention to advance the notion that every history is a story always told for the first time.
