Deanne Achong presented a work in progress, Bird, that is
part of a larger piece focussed around the concept of archival material
relating to jazz music from the 1930s-1950s. Bird is created in Flash,
a recombined and altered version of a quicktime video found on the web.

2003, and will be pursuing a web residency at La Chambre Blanche in
Quebec in the spring of 2005. She is originally from Montreal and holds
a BFA from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and an MFA from
the University of British Columbia. She teaches part-time at the Emily
