This seven minute performance was created for the first iteration of Pulsar. I do a backbend to turn myself into a human table and allow audience members to eat cake off of me. I then have them fill out questionnaires about their experience mid-performance.

I walk around in a square shape and then cover my body green makeup and pancake batter as a tribute to works by Bruce Nauman and Marilyn Minter. I swallow and spit an entire bottle of Bosco chocolate syrup onto a glass baking sheet and attempt to do thirty pushups.
