imageradio » re-act

not part of imageradio, but across the road in the now dwarfed original philips factory, was the re-ACT exhibition, combining light and interactivity. some beauty, like swarm pictured, but generally really disappointing interactivity - most of them were barely reactive. makes you wonder why you didn’t propose something.
…and the juvenile still finds “kunstlicht in de kunst” funny.

imageradio » mamabart

so this lady is watching a film as if it were through her own eyes, and right now her hand is being slobbered all over by a dog. except that its obviously not, it is mamabert is mimicking that with a hand puppet. truly memorable, truly live and a performance, and such an obvious idea: why isn’t everybody doing this, its “the feelies” for real.

imageradio » optical machines

the last ‘live cinema’ event, this was a complete surprise. looking at the little light-stage, i was charmed but could only imagine a few minutes of interest in whatever shadows it could produce. how wrong: a complete tour-de-force, taking a certain aesthetic and exploring it fully and brilliantly. http://www.opticalmachines.nl

imageradio » the status project

totally impressive: the status project. if anyone talks about sticking it to “the man”, well this is “the system”, mapped by heath bunting.

imageradio » the changes

“the times they are the changes”, and so there was a crazy opening party for their exhibition at mu gallery. fancy-dress a-go-go for those in the know, and standing around incredulously for those not.

imageradio » outside the tac

nik and adam of novak exchange cards with matthias kispert… somehow looks quite cold war shady.

imageradio » scanner & olga mink

kinetxt over, onto the evening’s ‘live cinema’ performance ‘the nature of being’ by scanner and olga mink. two quality artists, some super-beautiful moments and a ‘state-of-flux-cinematic-experience’ achieved. as neatly summed up by nik tho’, the path well travelled.

imageradio » kinetxt starts

6pm: kinetxt is go. and the other innovation: its recording itself, so it can spend the rest of its time at the imageradio exhibition iterating through the opening night’s perfomance.

imageradio » lampcam innovation

two anglepoise lamps on the desk, smart and suitably adjustable, but light only seems to be coming out of one of them…

imageradio » hour interview announced

eek, slightly daunting: an hour interview to highlight how “the artist’s work” relates to the theme. and there’s me still not entirely comfortable with the idea of myself as an artist…

eindhoven » kinetxt creatives

…explaining the kinetxt idea to local creatives, hopefully we can gather a group of people to really take the storytelling and content-for-the-context beyond where we’ve had it before.

eindhoven » kinetxt reconnaissance

checking venues for the kinetxt installation. this is eindhoven’s town archive, far from a musty building it rings with cool modernity - the only file boxes in sight form the design for the fascia.

eindhoven » mink’s stylish chauffeur services

picked up in style from the airport by the lovely and talented olga mink, co-curator of imageradio which will be featuring kinetxt this year. sitting in this car, it feels like you’re in a ship.
