Wormholes to more wormholes, the continually surprising audiovisual essays of Morgan Quaintance draw incisive connections between the most seemingly disparate of subjects—see how his quietly radical MISSING TIME moves, almost imperceptibly, from a consideration of New Hampshire alien abductions and postwar hypnotherapy to the violent traumas of British colonialism. Complemented by equally intricate sound design, his deft remixing of archival, found, and personal footage results in juxtapositions sometimes witty, sometimes devastating, and always thought-provoking in their insights into race, power structures, history, and memory.
