At its heart, the Stop Motion Studies (SMS) series celebrates what can be accomplished within the file size constraints presented by current network architectures. Flash MX is used as both sequencer and streaming technology for what might be referred to as "poor man's video." In any case, the experience is rich while being specific to the online environment.
In terms of conceptual underpinning, the SMS series continues Crawford's investigation into the relationship between technology and our experience of time, space and identity. On top of this is an added interest in exploring public space and in particular, public transportation as a stage on which social dynamics and individual identities are increasingly mediated by technology.

David Crawford is an artist, designer and teacher. As an artist, he has been internationally recognized and received numerous grants, honors and awards from organizations including the National Endowment for the Arts and the San Francisco Modern Museum of Art. As a designer, Crawford has held posts at some of the most preeminent organizations in the world including WGBH Boston, where he is currently working on projects funded by Annenberg/CPB and the National Science Foundation. As a teacher, he has pioneered programs at both the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Pratt Institute and is currently a faculty member at both schools where he is actively engaged in curricular development. He studied at the Massachusetts College of Art with filmmaker Mark Lapore and video artist Julia Scher.
