The glitch art that Parker has exhibited[1] lays out defects produced by databending using a combination of audio editing software and photo software.

She is a member of the Fort Point Arts Community[2] and was noted in the Boston Globe[3] as part of a campaign to save the historic Old Northern Avenue Bridge.
