I Don't Live Today' uses cinematic design in an abstract Jimi Hendrix biopic that visualizes the experience of biracial identity alienation. Through a proof-of-concept film, in-person costume, and an art book, the work constructs a world defined by strict, maximalist conformity to highlight that embracing fluidity is the ultimate act of resistance against exclusion and dominant Western narratives.
