Projects

  • Vietnam Romance (2015-present). Stern is currently working on a project called Vietnam Romance, which received a UCIRA grant and has been exhibited at Postmasters Gallery, Museum of the Moving Image and Babycastles Gallery in New York City, The Beall Center for Art and Technology at UC Irvine, Indiecade, Royal Ontario Museum, and Northern Spark in Minneapolis. The New York Times called the project "art you can play or watch" and described it as "a seasoned meditation on the relationship between war and gaming." In an article on the presentation of Vietnam Romance at Postmasters Gallery, Indie Game Magazine states that Stern "seeks to reassess the entertainment value of media released about the Vietnam War, in particular, with a large exhibit that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy to a point where they become indistinguishable."
  • Best Flamewar Ever (2007). Best Flamewar Ever is a dual channel animation work presenting conversations between Everquest players. Art critic Zehra Jumabhoy describes the players' conversation depicted in ArtForum: "Their discussion of the game rapidly morphs into an excuse to trade insults, revealing the masculinity-obsessed aggression lurking behind even such seemingly innocent flights of fancy."
