The New Studio
Now that I’m back in Rotterdam, I’ve moved into a larger studio. It’s not quite this clean any more, but I thought I should post the images I took a week ago.
Here’s the great space comforter I’m using.
Exhibitions and a magazine
Tonight will be a “closing” event for the first stage of the Tracking Rotterdam project. For this part of the collaboration with Michal Osowski, I (along with two other artists and a poet) have created image disks which will be read by a Max/MSP/Jitter patch. This event may be repeated in two weeks, then again at the beginning of April, in another location. The next stage of the project is set to begin next week.
Barchael is included in an upcoming show at Aspen Alternative Artspace and is currently working on a series for Propeller magazine. I’m sure Barchael will post more info soon.
Picture Disk
I’m back in Rotterdam after a short trip to Texas. It’s cold here, but at least it isn’t raining or snowing at the moment. I’m back to work on a few projects and hope to have quite a bit done in the next couple of weeks. Here is a draft I’m working on that will interact with a Max/MSP/Jitter patch built my a local artist. The piece will be exhibited here in Rotterdam. At the moment it has images from 2 animated sketches I’ve made, as well as a sequence from Eadweard Muybridge. It’s somewhere between a picture disk, mandala, and an animation wheel. I’m plan to test it this evening and/or tomorrow.
Setting and Soccer
Here are more images of the building and the view outside my window.
Yesterday I joined the Japanese artist “Wah Document” for their installation/performance of a soccer match in a local home. I played on the home team in the second game. The first was a one-on-one game. I joined the two-against-two match. It was a nice break during the day and a surprisingly good excercise for playing in a kitchen, hallway, and foyer.

I love these images.

Giants, Mammals, and the Studio
My studio assistants hard at work.
I went to an opening in this neighborhood yesterday, but was more interested in the location than the art.
A giant?
Here are some images of the common area here at the residency.
Another view of the studio and my wall-based thinking process.
Here is the view outside my studio window today.
