More test footage for the 'Aleph Delta' #cyberpunk movie project - this exploring the retro #weeb character Takahara, who currently plays a mysterious role in the main character's past. Most excellent music: 'スマイルの魔法' courtesy of Superpuyofãns1234, because X Japan's stuff is copyrighted :P

First shot at a #film #poster for 'Modernism/Us'. I thought about doing something fancier with the text, but sometimes simpler seems better?

May I Have this Dance.. (Experimental modern dance) (2018) This is "May I Have this Dance.. (Experimental modern dance) (2018)" by Morgan Black on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

My first ever attempt at a performance art film, from early in my undergrad days. Entirely inspired by the Pina Bausch's #Tanztheater. Despite knowing nothing whatsoever about modern dance, I still gave it a serious shot. #performance #art #neoexpressionist #narrative #light

Tattooed cartoon female vampire playing pool.

'8 Ball'...some cartoony nonsense made as a break from my latest round of academic writing this week. #cartoon #sexy #comix #lowbrow #badass #vampire #tattoo #characterdesign

Either/Or - Nonbinary Performance Video (2018; 2020 re-edit) 2020 collaboration between me, Heather Richardson and Richard Blaquiére of Queerativity. Uploading here for archival purposes.

Early film work of mine, rescored and recut by the folks at Queerativity. Original version was pretty intense and also included music by Laibach - this one's a lot less dystopian 😎. #nonbinary #film #video #performance #art #gender #queer #lgbt #music
