Jazzy Boho

LOVER LOVE, a new commission for the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art by Shu Lea Cheang (b. 1954), begins with a portal. A window is flung open and the gray wall of an apartment block dissolves into a turbulent, overcast sky, against which a smoky being is enveloped by a six-winged seraphim—an angel of the highest order. This collaboratively scripted film moves between physical and virtual space: between performances in a motel room, a junkyard, and city streets amid surrounding nature, we can see desert plants blooming anthropomorphic appendages and souls escaping inhuman oppression to take transhuman flight.

American teenagers connect on the early internet to crusade for their favorite videogame of all time, pitting their fan site against a corporate goliath and their own looming adulthoods.

A feature length satirical documentary-musical about the true history of the World Wide Web. Featuring drag queens and re-edited instructional VHS tapes, hacking AI, the “end of history”, and the colonization of cyberspace.

Sam's life changes forever when he wins a lifetime supply of chicken wings.

Jazzy brings a Fisher-Price tape recorder to a party and interviews millennials about America in 2017.

What is a virtual pet in an era of mass surveillance? Y2K aesthetic is back in style. Beyond cyclical fashion, this texture of a futurism that never came to pass has found new resonance with an American youth living under a technologically dominated culture in 2025. Jack out of the Y2KAGE in this erotic hauntology film probing the persistent feedback loops of future’s past in our present, forces of technological dominance, and virtual pets unleashed, as both subject and style.
