Here Cort merges video theater, early imaging technology and interactivity. In At Maple Tree Farm and Beyond, he transforms images during the recording process, manipulating staged events in a real-time, interactive electronic theater. Explorations in the Videospace features two broadcast recordings of video participation environments.

Part of a series of locative media-works, LoVid documents a walking tour of Harlem guided by a smartphone app that unlocks video, sound, and text in geographically specific locations. iParade#2 is described by the artists as exploring the "relationships between human memory and physical places, as well as displaced memories and technology." The project is structured in four "steps," making reference not only to steps through the city, but also steps through history, time, and across media—a literal "parade" of iPhones and Androids, reappropriated as platforms for interactive art.
