Single channel video, 2005A procession of stoic Japanese high school gradates and polite applause, a fireworks fight and a class of monkeys, collegiate debauchery and three-way sex, an array of potential occupations and ruminations on art that never get started. A 4 minute collage of still images, archived and found footage, chaotic noise and snippets of dialogue appropriated from the 1967 Dustin Hoffman classic \"The Graduate\" (because it had to be done) are assembled in an exploration of the giddiness, potential, ennui and anticlimax associated with the ritual of graduation.
