Pulse is an ongoing project and artwork, begun in 2016, with the names of thousands of victims of violence collected through anonymous public input. The names from the list will be read periodically by a group of people as a memorial. The final artwork will be experienced as a sound installation at future dates.
The name Pulse came from two sources. The principal source is referential to the first 49 names added to the list - the Pulse Nightclub shooting victims. The second reason is related to the rhythmic sound resembling a beating heart created when reading the victim's names from the list one-by-one.
