Places with meaning<\/span><\/h2>\n

Scott Fitzpatrick, 16mm to digital, col, sound, 2012, 3min<\/span><\/strong>
\nIn 1997 Microsoft created the truetype dingbats font, Webdings, the highly anticipated sequel to Wingdings. Controversy had circulated around the original font, so for the sequel, special attention was paid to the places the ‘bats depicted and how those places were represented (intentionally or unintentionally). Made on recycled 16mm film, in Microsoft Word.<\/span><\/p>\n

Golden Eye<\/span><\/h2>\n

LJ Frezza, video, col, sound, 2013, 6 min<\/span><\/strong>
\nPropaganda is the dissemination of data and surveillance is the collection of data. The James Bond series of films is a collection of propaganda, glorifying the practice of espionage. This is an abridged history of surveillance in the 20th Century, every James Bond movie released before the War on Terror. It is an examination of the permanent State of Exception in which US Citizens find ourselves, where extralegal proceedings have become the standard operating procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Explosions Bring Us Closer Together<\/span><\/h2>\n

Jonathan Johnson, video, color & b\/w, 2012, 1min 32sec<\/span><\/strong>
\nI am interested in new meanings and formal relationships that come to the surface when sound and image from various sources are re-contextualized. I consider internet, personal, found and archival images as latent records that reveal the comedy, geography and drama of our social lives. “Explosions Bring us Closer Together” montages found images and sound to create a reflection on the interconnectivity made possible through technology, however dark and absurd.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sandra Araujo, video, col, sound, 2013, 4min 12sec<\/span><\/strong>
\nVideo games are emergent systems with their own particular internal relationships. This animation mashes up and deconstructs game spaces taking on a multitude of forms, from scrolling on one axis to several separate screens. The blocky 2D grids plasticity is emphasized through a reduced color palette in order to favor formal representation of early video games against the photorealistic, logically consistent 3D game spaces of recent years.<\/span><\/p>\n

– –<\/span>
\nSandra Ara\u00fajo aka s-ara (PT) is a visual artist that spend endless hours shooting at monsters and strolling through mazes. So, it only felt natural for her to evolve through an experimental and explorative process of the visual culture of video games and popular gif files in her animations. She still plays old school computer games.<\/span><\/p>\n

Los Angeles II<\/span><\/h2>\n

Angela Ferraiolo, video, col, silent, 2013, 2min 24sec<\/span><\/strong>
\nA common area of investigation for generative artists is the effects of chaos on ordered systems. In Los Angeles II, small amounts of chaos or randomness are gradually introduced into the normal sort order of image pixels. The resulting video shows the struggle between order and chaos as the sorting rules of the video frame begin to fall apart.<\/span><\/p>\n

RACE<\/span><\/h2>\n

Matt Town, 16mm, b\/w, silent, 2012, 3min 3sec<\/span><\/strong>
\nRACE is the case study of a dog track in Florida. Although I grew up right down the street from the establishment, I had never been inside. That is until I decided to explore the space with a camera. This enabled me to see more than dogs running around a track.<\/span><\/p>\n
