How to Boil Time, a single channel video, pairs excerpts from dream recordings  with pixelated, awkwardly cropped and collaged images taken by my grandfather from Chinese TV, local Newspapers and widow views. His photographs recall my childhood memories from Chinese urban landscape, especially in Xi’an where I grew up; and an elderly man's nationalism, who had gone through the communist change of China.  
 
Playing the sequences of both allowed a new narrative to appear, which circles a path around a question I asked in my dream, how to boil time.
