Statement

This submission is a bit unorthodox. This set of three "films" is interactive, and I would strongly appreciate it if they could be evaluated in the form they take at the website http://viruspatterns.com - there is a 5 minute introduction, and then the things I would like to show are the chapters about Hepatitis and Zika virus. Ideally I would like to show the interactive version at Bridges Film Festival. Which is to say, it will be on my laptop, and I will play it live, while the audience sees it projected. With that said, for the places where they are to be played in a continuous loop, it is fine to use the non-interactive versions. Because they are interactive, it can be variable how much time it takes to play them. At the festival they would take 5:00, though I am linking to videos that are a bit longer than that. If selected I would make noninteractive versions that are 5:00 long, by simply rerecording with less time spent on the interactive parts.

Films

This one is about the connection between Zika virus and Islamic art
