Hunter Reynolds and George Lyter

Medication Reminder a new video work that Reynolds created from the recordings of a dear friend, Kathleen White, who for a year and a half called Reynolds every day to remind him to take his HIV medication. Following his HIV strokes, Reynolds was forced to take a strict regimen of pills twice daily, which he was loath to do. As White’s messages accumulated, Reynolds documented himself listening to the reminders, sorting his pills, and taking his medicine, overlaid with audio clips of Reynolds talking to his friend as if she were there with him, completing the voice mail conversations.  Throughout the video we hear the sound of her voice of friendship interspersed with a rhythmic phrase: “Take your meds, I love you, take your meds, I love you, bye.”
