| For Le Mois de la Photo I just finished working with artist Josée Pedneault to realize her video installation in a church, where it will reside for the next six weeks (that's more than "un mois," but don't tell the Québécois). Using Max/MSP, I made randomized, cross-faded video sequences (shot by Josée) for projection onto the walled surfaces where stained glass windows would normally reside. The show is called Mur-mur (literally "wall-wall" in French ) and opens September 6. Update. Photos: 1,, 2,, 3 |

| All the sections are now up; the content will continue to fill in as I document and decide on the worthiness of past work. If I muster the courage, some music may go up in the sounds area, which now houses only a couple of field recordings. Some of my photos can be found. . .on the web. . .in ad-space. Albeit of pop-culture-blog patronage, Gawker Artists operates with the resourceful idea of placing non-commercial images in unsold ad-space of websites that sign up. |
