Her most recent work explores feminist speculative world building, working between live performance and volumetric 3D/VR landscapes. Huff is also a founding member of media performance collective Cloud Eye Control. She has released several albums of music, most recently a track for record label Kill Rock Stars 30th Anniversary compilation. She was a 2017 performance fellow at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Additional performances and presentations include the New Museum, NYC; Redcat, Los Angeles; MoMA PS1; and Festival A Mil, Chile; among others.
