Undesirable Elements/Madison, WI
About the Production
In Spring 2001, Ping Chong was the Interdisciplinary Artist in Residence at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, teaching a course called Vampires, Doppelgängers and Aliens--Resident and Otherwise. The course invited students from different artistic disciplines and personal histories to build on the central themes examined in the Undesirable Elements series through the creation of interdisciplinary artistic projects. The course culminated in an Undesirable Elements production featuring first-hand experiences of University students, staff and community members.
