Hi, I'll be having three video installations up during the next couple of weeks. There will be a 2 monitor installation in the windows of the Zeitgeist Gallery being installed on April 21 and up until May 4. The other artists in the show are very interesting also -- so a trip to the gallery during its open hours is most recommended. The opening for this show is on 4.26 at 3:30 PM. If you want to combine art with a trip to the country, one of my pieces will be at the Monson Art's Center from 4.26 to 5.4, with the opening also at 4.26. The show last year had a lot of fine work. I'll have a two monitor with sound installation as part of COLLISIONfive opening reception on Sunday 4.27, from 1 to 8 PM. This is in the lobby outside the Compton Gallery at MIT. The COLLISIONfive show includes robotics and computer based art, and is guaranteed to surprise and stimulate. More details (in more formal prose) below. Video artist Doctor T (Emile S. Tobenfeld Ph. D) is pleased to announce 3 upcoming video installations. Doctor T creates "visual music" or "visual poetry: (whichever metaphor you prefer), by taking real-world image sources and combining and treating them in the computer, and sequencing the images using musical strategies such as theme and variations and improvisation. His pieces use a small number of thematic images, which are then computer processed and combined and collaged with other images to make sequences of moving images -- a "music for the eyes". He will have a piece titled Astro Blue vs. The Zeitgeist Mix in the window of the Zeitgeist Gallery as part of Digital Collage , which will be on display from April 21 to May 4. The show in the gallery will include work by Dave Grant, David Gordon, Daina Krumins, and Joanne Kaliontzis. This piece uses two looped and phased DVD players, and is part of his "Video Synchronicities" series, which explores the connections between multiple images both deliberately and serendipitously combined. This piece plays minimal mostly abstract images (Astro Blue) off a video derived from many image sources, mixed with images of the gallery sign (The Zeitgesit Mix). THE ZEITGEIST GALLERY is at, 1353 Cambridge St. Inman Sq. Cambridge 69 Bus from Harvard Gate NEW PHONE: 617.876.6060 The opening reception is on Saturday April 26, from 3:30 - 6:30 PM. The gallery is open from 2 to 7 PM Tuesdays - Sundays. My piece will be in the window and can be viewed at any time. http://www.zeitgeist-gallery.org/ He will have a piece called Water Music at The Heaven Below The Heaven Above Monson Arts Council 10 Annual Spring Art Exhibition & Sale April 26 - May 4, 2003, Monson Arts Centre 200 Main Street Monson, MA 01057 with the opening on April 26, at 1 PM Do not be fooled by the small town venue -- this show rocks! Water Music consists of images of water, collaged using computer animation techniques, and improvisationally sequenced. The piece is a musical treatment of some (a tiny fraction) of the textural and evocative properties of water imagey. It is set to a soundtrack of electronic music, composed my Michael Robinson, and based on a raga inspired by the Ganges River, He will have a piece entitled "Video Synchronicities -- The Bridge and The Elements" at the opening reception of COLLISIONfive, the next dimension, a celebration of art and technology at Compton Gallery at MIT. The Compton Gallery is in the main complex at MIT (77 Mass Ave, under the dome). The opening is on Sunday, April 27th, from 1 pm until 8PM. The Bridge and The Elements is a 2 DVD presentation, with soundtracks by Doctor T and Neil Leonard. The piece uses images of the Brooklyn Bridge at night, offset by images of water, fire, ice, and steel buildings.
