 ><p>Old Powerhouse is an experimental artwork that centers upon two archite
 ctural forms: the pyramids of Ancient Egypt\, and an electrical powerhouse 
 located on the University of British Columbia campus. In the artwork they a
 re both encountered as monumental projections of history\, and used to ques
 tion the invisible forces that shape the production of the tale of western 
 civilization. Rather than traditional narrative form\, the work proposes an
  alternative historical model\; an abstract dialogue describing massive ene
 rgies\, condense and diffuse.</p><p>Composed of a large pyramidical form\, 
 an animation which uses the chaotic logic of the internet\, and steam\, the
  work brings a dynamic questioning to the processes within the gallery — ar
 e they enacting the slow deterioration of a ruin\, or the messy first stirr
 ings of life? It is an embodiment of our own strange historical moment\; ol
 d gods of energy and light groaning\, perched between giving life and destr
 oying it.</p><p><a href="https://ahva2016.sites.olt.ubc.ca/persons/michelle
