Psychological Prosthetics
™ looks at the ways culture supports, fuels and suppresses emotions.
We offer a line of products from the 30 Second Rant Recorder (to activate outrage) to the PP Band Aid (to soothe shame, repair apathy) and a line of individual services that start strangers talking about emotional baggage in political times.





 


I-140
describes artists Nomi Talisman and Dee Hibbert-Jones’ five-year-long, $40,000 struggle to keep Talisman legally in the US. The video shows the couple holding hand-made signs on the side of Californian highways as traffic drives blindly by. Each sign describes a step in their struggle with the US immigration services.





 


The Amnesia Archives
is a series of large format color photographs, shot on locations with a history of violent acts or events.






 

Multi Exposure is a collaborative project that documented the Jewish Gay Community in London, but really, explored issues and politics of documentary photography, as well as communities. The result of this research were exhibitions in London, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, and a catalog. The people that we photographed formed the community of this project: sometimes gay, sometimes Jewish, sometimes both and sometimes none.


In Untitled (Green Card) Dee Hibbert-Jones, Nomi Talisman and Max Talisman-Jones are collaboratively working on Talisman's green Card.

Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology, or S.M.A.R.T. (sometimes written as SMART), is a monitoring system for computer hard disks to detect and report on various indicators of reliability, in the hope of anticipating failures.
