Event Description

Organized by Bradley Eros

For the first evening of this weekend of live cinema and sound work, a group of audio-visual experimenters comes together for a lab is a lab is a lab, a structure for improvisation and collaboration that film artist Bradley Eros premiered at The Kitchen in 2007. Here, sound- and image-makers engage in interlocking solos and duos involving projections and music made with tape machines, film loops, contact mikes, glass slides, modified synthesizers, and stringed instruments. Players include Gill Arno, Jonas Asher, Lea Bertucci, MV Carbon, Eros, Victoria Keddie, and Lary Seven.

On Saturday, Optipus—an NYC media collective composed of Eros, Keddie, and Seven, plus Katherine Bauer, Tim Geraghty, Rachael Guma, Sarah Halpern, Jay Hudson, Rachelle Rahme, and Pancho—presents expanded tentacles, an evening of three works with ephemeral projections and live soundtracks: Spectrum, a color-coded composition for expanded cinema with electronics, foley, and strings; Séance, a video of Houdini magic and mischief, with an electrified Ouiji board and ensemble; and The Owl of Minerva, dedicated to the death of Kodachrome film and other obsolete technologies of analog media.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.

This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
