Career

Embryoroom has been in operation since the mid-1990s, originating as a production identity and shortly thereafter as an identity which Quist performed multimedia exhibitions and released a number of projects under. [2] Embryoroom has released a number of films and recordings on digital platforms. [3] [4]

In 2008, Quist produced, directed, and scored a two-part series called HAZMASK, consisting of the "intersodes," The Third Rail and Chamber of Aversion. They were released on amazon.com [3] and iTunes. [4] Hazmazk screenedat The Museu d'art Contemporani de Barcelona during the Sónar Festival. [5] [6] That same year, he released Kuvaputki , a DVD based around a close filmed live performance of the band Pan Sonic, produced and directed by Quist and co-produced by Derek Gruen. [1] It screened at the 2008 Sónar Festival [5] and 2008 Milan Film Festival. [1]

In 2015 Quist produced a piece called The Black Vertebrate. It has two versions, a 33-minute installation piece and a feature-length iteration. Split into nine chapters, Quist described it, "as if one is trapped inside an artificial intelligence that is breaking down into some unknown realm of psychosis." [7] [8]
