EAI presented a special evening with Michael Smith and Joshua White. Smith and White screened video works that they have produced together, and spoke about their long collaboration.

Over the last 11 years, Michael Smith and Joshua White have collaborated on a series of increasingly sophisticated videos and installations that incorporate Smith's deadpan and wide-eyed alter-ego, "Mike." Gullible and ever-hopeful, Smith's eponymous character is an Everyman living in a media-saturated hyper-ordinary world that he does not really understand.
