C**KIE M*NSTER *NTERPRETER Online performance 4 video documentation

2021.10.20

This is the video documentation of the live-streamed performance *C*KIE MNSTER NTERPRETER Interpreter by AMY LAM and OLIVER HUSAIN, in the 11th Seoul Mediacity Biennale One Escape at a Time, broadcast on Twitch.tv on 15 November, 2021.
The live-stream performance was a collaboration between AMY LAM (of Life of a Craphead) and filmmaker OLIVER HUSAIN. It was inspired by a so-called “”non-racist”” joke suggesting that the artist would make a good interpreter for Cookie Monster — an idea they pushed to an extreme in this work.
Staged in the artist’s home like a real-time sitcom, the performance drew on personal experiences, such as LAM’s family history of running a restaurant, to portray an interpreter attempting to understand a monster driven by insatiable appetite.
