The Kips Gallery (New York, NY) showcased artist Ziwon Wang at the San Francisco Art Fair. I was compelled to take film footage since photography just isn’t enough. These sculptures are definitely an experience.

An amazing start to the weekend with Recology SF opening for Scott Kildall. I captured some video footage of Scott’s piece, Live Transmission. Kildall created the work using a turntable, DVD player, projector, wiring, and circuitry. The projection simulated a transmission of the distant future where humans salvage and re-create a world they once knew. […]

During the Transmutations closing this past Friday, I couldn’t help but film the CUBIIC piece. It was one of the interactive works that rely on the end-user to modify the plexiglass cubes and utilize touch technology (imagine mini turn tables) to create and layer sounds to produce music! After viewing the video, please visit the […]

I will definitely post thoughts and reflections of the show in the next few days including thoughts on GAFFTA’s awesomeness. It was one of the best closing nights I’ve EVER attended. I’m extremely proud to be […]

Videos of Hennessy Youngman have been floating around the internet for months. I can’t believe I haven’t posted something about him until now. A few of my Facebook friends (all artists) have posted his videos. His ability to mesh humor and art theory is not only entertaining but makes art accessible. His approach gives performance […]

I haven’t forgotten about my last installment of the Spread Exhibition (which ended last week). I have yet to write my reflections on Laetitia Sonami and her selected artist Jacqueline Gordon. It’s forthcoming. I’ve got so much stuff in the pipeline and as mentioned, it’s been a pretty hectic and draining (to say the least). […]

Sonami’s selected artist for the Spread exhibition was artist, Jacqueline Gordon. Yet another amazing artist that does incredible work exploring architecture and how sounds (whether from the outside coming into a designated space or synthesized sound) affects both the space and the listener. Hoping to see her featured on artist site, The Limner, soon. You […]

Although a pretty lengthy video, it’s worth the time and energy especially if you are into experimental music and abstract sounds. For the last installment of my reflections on the Spread Exhibition, which is unfortunately over, I’m working through the last pair that includes this incredible vanguard sound artist, Laetitia Sonami!
