Quoted: It seems like this past weekend, the center of the Internet-imageboard 4chan and its members, who are famous for the creation of Rickrolling, Pedobear and for pwning Scientology – used a website containing leaked Facebook passwords of religious Christians to wreak havoc all over the social networking site. Like Gremlins hijacking a movie theater, Channers had many, many lulz taking over these Facebook accounts.

quoted: Coined in the mid-1960s by Stan VanDerBeek, but with its origins in the experiments of early twentieth century avant-garde filmmaking, media-technologies and performance art, the term Expanded Cinema identifies a film and video practice which activates the live context of watching, transforming cinema’s historical and cultural ‘architectures of reception’ into sites of cinematic experience that are heterogeneous, performative and non-determined.

quoted: Bill Fontana is a sound artist who has created over three decades worth of site-specific sculptures and installations. He first became fascinated with field recordings while studying under John Cage in the mid 60s, and has chosen to use ambient sounds in all of his installations. Fontana regards the physical environment as a living source of musical information, where meaningful sound patterns can often be found.

It brings into an intensely personal focus Brain Eno'sseemingly disparate work in sound, vision and light, and explores his music in visual terms, based on landscapes and images that have shaped his life as an artist.

quoted: The 'Law of Accident' plays an aleatory, randomised role in many of Eno's most influential creations: the car accident which led to the ambient music experiments for Discreet Music (1975), the Frippertronics tape delay experiments which resulted in Eno and Robert Fripp's album No Pussyfooting (1972), and the oracular deck Oblique Strategies (1975) created with the late painter Peter Schmidt. This period shows the value of a disposition for action that is informed by conceptual depth; rapid, iterative development for strategy execution; and quasi-experimental methods with collaborators that fail fast and leverage upside risk.

The Ocean of Light project explores the creative and immersive possibilities of light-based visualisation in physical space. It uses bespoke hardware to create dynamic, interactive and three-dimensional sculptures from light.
Surface is the first artwork to be exhibited using the Ocean of Light hardware. It uses minimal visuals and sound to evoke the essence of character and movement. Autonomous entities engage in a playful dance, negotiating the material properties of a fluid surface.
