Today I did the risk assessment and walk throught the install of We’ve been Re-Distributed at ARTicle Gallery… I also checked kit and have 3 working and matching VCR Players and 3 working and matching projectors!!! I discussed the shows general aesthetic and press, etc with curator Mona Casey and am really looking forward to everything begining to come togeather! I’ll post photos of install and then documentation once I have some!
I then met the curator of TROVE Charlie and Soph to drop off Marking the Internet and the Physical 2.0… and feel confidant that its going to look great installed in TROVE‘s home The Old Science Museum! I talked them through every poss situation that might arrise during install and i think everyone feels confidant! Flyers are now spread around Birmingham, are attached to this blog post and I’m dropping a pile off at Leamington Spa Art Gallery and Museum tomorrow!
Been working on a text to go with the 14second piece of sound I made with Flowlosopha which reads:
‘The work explores the notion of minimalism; in both sonic and aesthetic forms, reflecting the interests and working practices of it producers, a visual artist and musician respectively. This work is 14 seconds in duration and is made to be played using a commercial CD player’s repeat function so that it becomes looped for a period of time and creates a piece of music / sound art through this process.
This instruction highlights the participation inherent within the various forms of minimalism from the use of audience/unintentional noise in John Cage’s legendary 4’33’ as well as the action of the dance floors of Minimal Techno clubs to the Phenomenology used to understand the minimal visual art of the 1960’s.’
I will be dropping a pile of CD’s along with this text into Gallery 150 where I’m hoping they’ll be free to collect for the next month or so!
Also i’ve uploaded and attached the footage of firewall which I’ve mentioned in the last few posts!
