| 1998 Luxor,Egypt, meets Luxor, Las Vegas, calling into question the nature of reality through a meltdown of the real and the replica. Each world is suspended and then reborn in the realm of video as past, present and future merge into one pulsing electronic moment. Luxor is also designed as a single channel installation. 18:00 minutes “With its resplendent images, Luxor lures us into glittering hieroglyphic displays and sparkling sands as we ponder the mystery of where one location ends and another begins.” - TL Reid, Afterimage “The ‘real’ archaeological site meets its modern day ‘replica’ in Vegas, as McElwee collapses culture and history in the high desert.” - Steve Seid, Curator, University Art Museum, Pacific Film Archive, Berkeley, California “Mesmerizing…ingenious originality…Luxor’s images shimmer like a heat-wave mirage.” - Diane Carson, Riverfront Times, St. Louis |

Charles Wells is allegedly the man who broke the bank in Monte Carlo way back in 1891 playing roulette, apparently using the Martingale system (doubling stakes after every loser).
The world must be littered with gamblers who have lost a lot of money using the Martingale system. The horseracing equivalent is the tic-tac system, which comprises of the "stop-at-a-winner" theory backing the favourite in every race at any given meeting in a day, to win 10% of the bankroll or whatever figure the punter decides to chase.
