There Is Something In Good Men That Really Yearns for Discipline

"There is Something in Good Men That Really Yearns for Discipline" is a work of video art for which I ventriloquized an avatar of my toddler son using text appropriated from football coach Vince Lombardi. Lombardi is known not only for guiding football players to victory but also for inspiring management and sales executives interested in motivating themselves and their employees. Driven by an uncomfortable performance of a mother animating and speaking through her male child, "There is Something in Good Men That Really Yearns for Discipline" deals with issues of masculinity, individuality, will, and control.
