"SICK is a video I made in 1986 while in grad school at the San Francisco Art Institute. The voice-over is extemporaneous, created after I had shot and edited the image. The effects were done in-camera - the Art Institute had a studio with a large Grass Velley switcher and it coould generate a lot of colors - whatever you wanted - and it wasn't digital, so the colors are all along an analogue spectrum." - Cecilia Dougherty
