Alan Resnick is a visual artist obsessed with his own face. Since 2009 he has been working towards the creation of a lifelike digital backup. This simulacrum is being designed to fill the role of Alan to family and friends in the event of his death. Alan has also given many lectures about the importance of digitizing the self and DYI virtual reality technology. After receiving his BFA from SUNY Purchase he started collaborating with the Wham City collective. Alan divides his time between Baltimore and New York City where he is currently working on his masters degree at a very impressive school. He exaggerates his own self worth or importance, often in an overbearing manner.
