A single-channel version of a multi-monitor live, interactive electronic installation and performance by Barbara Sykes on the video synthesizer and Michael Sterling on the audio synthesizer. And a NASA computer simulation of celestial orbit.
William Chayes’s “…living in the city.” This experimental Super-8 film is a meditation on the speed of life in the city. The film uses time lapse motion editing techniques.
“d/stabilize/d is a document of a 3-channel video installation with stereo sound which premiered at ARC Gallery in Chicago in 1987. d/stabilize/d offered the viewer a chaotic environment poised on the verge of balance. Entering the gallery, one was immediately confronted by a nonsensical arrangement of floating doors, doorways and monitors. On the monitors, random fragments of natural phenomena, such as fire and pounding surf, were set in opposition to more domestic scenes of deterioration, centering on a farmhouse in ruins. A further exploration of the space revealed these elements, as subtly engaged in a systemic and coherent exchange between order and disorder, harmony and imbalance.”–Barbara Sykes
