DOCTOR T (EMILE TOBENFELD)’s artistic sensibility is strongly influenced by his education (Ph.D in Physics), and his fascination with improvisation in all forms. His sonic and visual experiments apply a scientist’s and photographer’s eye for texture, geometry, form, and the interaction of light and surface, a strong sense of collage, and an abiding curiosity about technology’s use in creating music and visual art. Dr.T is joined by CLAIRE BARRATT of Cilla_Vee Movement Projects. Claire specialized in Motion Sculpture, a unique art form in which the artist becomes a living sculpture piece. Gradually melting and morphing through transitions of shifting forms, constantly reinventing itself. Special audio by DEKNOW.

With BRAD SWINDELL no video stream from any source is safe from being yanked out of the air and dropped into his laptop. Once there, clips are mixed, scratched, and looped to music, creating a whole new context for the images. Next thing you know, Celebrity Boxing is playing with Radiohead, and Bollywood clips are jumping to Basement Jaxx beats.

CHARLES ATLAS is a filmmaker and video artist who has created numerous works for stage, screen, museum, and television. Atlas is a pioneer in the development of media-dance, a genre in which original performance work is created directly for the camera. Atlas worked as filmmaker-in-residence with the Merce Cunningham Dance Company for ten years, and many of the Atlas’ works have been collaborations with choreographers, dancers, and performers, including Yvonne Rainer, Michael Clark, Douglas Dunn, Marina Abramovic, Diamanda Galas, John Kelly, and Leigh Bowery. Atlas is the recipient of three Bessie (New York Dance and Performance) Awards. His feature-length film “Merce Cunningham: A Lifetime of Dance” won the Best Documentary Award at Dance Screen 2000 in Monaco. His work has been shown at international institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art; the Museum of Modern Art; Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre Geoerges Pompidou, Paris; the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam.

CHIKA IIJIMA is a visual artist from Japan who has been living and working in New York City since the early 90’s. She combines video with graphic imagery to traverse an emotional range by processing them through real-time programs such as Modul8. She integrates music to further explore how physical and rhythmic modulations affect human emotions and vice-versa.
