BRIC Media Arts Fellowship

I'm very happy to be starting the BRIC media arts fellowship this summer. BRIC is a Brooklyn non-profit art and culture organization which runs exhibits, concerts, and operates several Brooklyn based cable channels. The media arts fellowship provides training, equipment, and facility access, with the goal of creating video artworks to be run on their cable tv channels. I'll be posting more about my project with BRIC in the future.

Multimedia diorama concept

This is a concept video for a multimedia diorama idea. It would combine the 3d depth of a diorama with the motion of video projections. I'd also include tangible moving elements, a soundscape, and more. As presented to eyebeam, an art & technology center, for a potential 2011 residency.




For more of my video work, check out my vimeo channel.

Vertical video composition

I went back to the drawing board in after effects, and began this smaller vertical composition. It's coming along nicely, but needs some finishing touches and blending. Here's a still image, will post the final video in the near future.

Utopia & Wallpaper

I'm participating in a really cool group exhibition, opened from 10/16 - 11/21 at the Catskill Art Society- 48 Main St. Livingston Manor, NY. Will be displaying one of my paintings, and my first video piece. If you're up that way, definitely check it out. Show information & images below.

“Utopia and Wallpaper: The Real and the Ideal  in the Pursuit of Social Democracy, October 16 - November 21, 2010. This exhibition, guest curated by Joel Carreiro and Brett DePalma, takes inspiration from the fact that the Livingston Manor Central School houses six amazing 19th century panels created by artist Jean-Julien Deltil from the famous Zuber et Cie wallpaper company, which depict idealized visions of what America was or might become. Artists were asked to respond directly to the implications the panels embody for the possibility of social democracy, then and now. Artists participating in this show are Tate Billings, Amy Chan, Andrew Chan, Peter Edlund, Elizabeth Ennis, Max Greis, Melanie Printup Hope, Yashua Klos, Rosalie Morris, John Morton, Jesse Sachs, Jackie Shatz and Yeongkuk Yu.”

Fall open studios

I'm participating in the Morgan Fine Arts open studios, where i'll be showing some of my latest work. It's at 649 Morgan Ave in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, Saturday Sept. 25, from 5-10pm. 40 artists will be participating, i'm in studio 3J. There's even hors d’oeuvres, drinks, and a limo pickup at the Bedford Avenue L stop (for limo service, call 646-938-6986). Hope to see you there.

Video progression continued...

I added some photoshop images to help fill out & complete my new video landscape. Still have to do a lot of blending, mixing, and editing though.

Video progression

Here's an updated still image from the new video landscape i'm working on. I've added and changed a few things, almost done with the arranging phase. Should be able to post a short video preview soon, stay tuned.
