| Aileen Familara's Gulo sa Bahay, or "Household Chaos" (2001), is an animated GIF image that is recognizable at first glance as a scientific display. Events depicted in the work are quarrels between three sisters, like seismic events occurring all across the globe. Essentially, the work shows real-time seismic events as a metaphor for human relations. Familara explains: "The work partakes of the idiom of mapping, scientific representation. I was more concerned with modernizing the feng shui concepts of geomantic harmonies, but this time representing disharmonies." Familara also sees the work taking on a humorous perspective on interpersonal relations,"this one examining conflict in my household of three sisters, rendered in the manner of GIS locators of earthquake events."
