www.bonfirebitumin.com was an evolving time-based visual work that investigated notions of self-rescue and how landscape is oft commandeered for this purpose. Images surfaced on the screen for moments and then disappeared. It was impossible to view if the user had not disabled "Block Pop-up Windows." Windows stacked up on windows. Some contained drawings and some hand written texts, phrases crossed out and rewritten and repeated. Three videos appeared only if the viewer had stayed with the project over a certain length of time.

These drawings are 5 of over 30 drawings and texts contained within the original project.

This project was commissioned by the Longwood Digital Matrix, Bronx Council of the Arts.

Judd Morrissey, artist and engineer of sorts, made this work possible.
