imageradio

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.

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.

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

kinda kitch, but so well done.

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

“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.

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

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.

the creative hub. props to all involved: you can see the energy.

with imageradio’s opening speeches over, we see crowds come through
