Travis Ellsworth was born in Keene in 1984 and graduated from high school there in 2002. Ellsworth was raised in the concrete construction business and has worked that trade in and around the area for their entire life, continuing to the present as a hardscaper on the grounds crew with KSC Facilities.

Travis has always loved making and consuming art, beginning with film at a young age. Growing up in a college town provided many opportunities to foster that interest. Keene had two mainstream movie theaters, which was important, but being able to seek out more freaky, outsider work at the Putnam on campus was essential. (Video Headquarters was no small part of that either, if you know you know.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ellsworth has made video collages since the teenage years, always calling the practice \u201chype art\u201d and placing it somewhere between a cinema and a rave. Travis loves electronic music and is fascinated by extreme experiences and the moments of sensory overload that come with them. The videos are meant to evoke overwhelming excitement, anticipation, and acceleration, but are intended to be enjoyed more than endured. The pieces are built purely from uncleared samples, ranging from proto-cinema and the VHS era to AI-generated material, edited in a storm of electronica and breakcore music Travis loves. Everything is repurposed without permission; monetization has never been the point, and the work is included here in the spirit of sharing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
