Last night John along with Rose Kaplan-Bomberg, Goda Trakumaite, Dylan Ravenfox, and Scott Muller looked at some of the students’ media for the quasi-open-source project.
Sam and Goda previewed their work for the Flat Land apparatus: simultaneous slide shows. One will use “bad” vernacular picts to provoke the question “why was this picture taken?”; the other, sequences that compare domestic spaces, Soviet era monuments, and contemporary art installations.
The clip below shows one channel of a proposed 5 channel piece by Dylan that will present various animals, human and non-human, their techniques of representation, and their suffering and cruelty:
On December 1st we’ll meet again to look at fine cuts. On December 4th, a viewing party.
There are a few other projects in the works. More details later.
