  • A Synesthete's Atlas: Cartographic Improvisations between Eric Theise and John Ingle; Loan Agreement by John Davis; Change of Uniform by Dave Defilippo

    By on

    Real-time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise in collaboration with John Ingle, saxophone. A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Chromatic timbres and iridescent micro-tonalities. Orphaned labels and free-floating symbology. Auditory roundabouts and redirections. Saturated colors and the subtlest of tints. Sounds symphonic and screeching. Jittery zooms, pans, and traversals. Glitches in crowdsourced data.

  • Beyond Enchantment: The Films of Lawrence Jordan

    By on
    Solar Sight II (Lawrence Jordan, 2012)

    Legendary collage animator Lawrence Jordan presents his most recent film, a tribute to Max Ernst and Luis Buñuel, alongside a selection from his entire career, followed by a live film performance with John Davis.

    “I have always wanted to show the ‘impossible’ in my films, and to astonish the viewer. . . . I often operate on freely associated series of images, finding the trail as I go, not plotting it, though some of the films are meticulously scripted. When I astonish myself, I put it in the film. When I don’t, I leave it out.” - Lawrence Jordan

    Wednesday, October 5, 2016 - 19:00 to Thursday, October 6, 2016 - 18:55

    Venue:
