Michael gravitates towards the technological because he finds the tools to be more flexible, if less well developed in their actual use, than traditional media. His aesthetic interest lies in veiled expressions of the erotic and the dangerous with occasional forays into the formal and the humorous. While he is conversant with history and theory, he prefers to mine the post-post-modern mis-en-scène for nuggets of undiscovered irony and hidden sub-text which are then bricolaged into his work.
