The Questionnaire was created as a design framework for data collection, curation, and filtration. It consists of a variety of arbitrary questions, generated without agenda or prompt. Colleague Molly Haig completed the 12-page document by hand. In collaboration with Google, I input her unique responses, selecting a single image from the search results. The final curation was then presented in a 194-page bound publication. To conclude The Questionnaire, the images were compiled into a looping video as part of a larger archival performance and installation. All paperwork was formalized with dates and signatures.
