SUMMARY:Din Din: Quick Slice by Lily Baldwin
DESCRIPTION:Nightly Screenings Beginning at DuskLocation: 39-31 29th St\, Long Island CityLily Baldwin’s film installation “Quick Slice” will screen every night in Flux Factory’s front window with free slices every Friday in June (limited pizza! First come\, first serve). \nThis event is part of the exhibition Din Din\, a series of free\, socially-distanced outdoor events which use food and art to build community. \nFilm Description\n“Quick Slice”\, 23 minutes on loop\, 2019 \nTHINGS AREN’T WHERE THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE. \nNine lonely strangers converge over a quick slice inside a casual\, no bullshit\, non-committal community hub— the pizza shop. When a “contaigent” enters\, dance turns inconsequential moments into idiosyncratic gestures\, toggling between task and choreography. A subtle\, disorientating use of editing techniques and photographic devices manipulating time craft a visceral and sonically rich dreamscape. \n“Quick Slice” scales to respective environments\, utilizing available architecture and unsuspecting surfaces. Caught between the character’s gaze\, the viewer catches shards of the story projected onto their body. These seemingly accidental screenings encourage an unadulterated and kinesthetic reception of the project. \nInspired by Netta Yerushalmy’s Paramodernities Directed by Lily BaldwinProduced by Brighid GreeneEdited by Lily Baldwin\, Sara SowellVideo installation design consulting by Joseph SeamansSound Mix by Mark degli AntoniCinematography by Ben WolfAssistant Camera Sanjay SinghStills by Courtney DenkHair by Takeo Suzuki|Makeup by Hiro YonemotoMakeup Assistant Ken SuzukiFeaturing designs by PavonProduction Assistants Rishauna Zumberg\, Jaanelle Yee \nStarring Lily Baldwin\, Henry Chesley\, Geneva Frazier\, Dean Melaas\, Toni Melaas\, Katharine Padulo\, Wally Padulo\, Angie Pittman\, Peggy Schneider\, Gus Solomons Jr.\, Amy Meisner Threet \nThanks to New York Live ArtsFiscally sponsored by Los Angeles Performance Project \nArtist Bio\nBased in NYC\, Berlin and LA\, Lily Baldwin is known for her compelling\, intricate narrative forms. Her works have screened at festivals including Sundance\, SXSW\, Berlin\, and Venice\, as well as at Lincoln Center\, the V&A Museum\, and Carnegie Hall to Anthology Film Archives\, Judson Church\, and Blue Stockings Bookstore. They are featured on The Criterion Channel and NOWNESS. As a dancer\, Baldwin performed on a world tour with David Byrne and Brian Eno and with the Metropolitan Opera\, Trisha Brown Dance Company\, and other NYC choreographers. The New York Times says her “work has a visceral power similar to Cronenberg’s.”

Some of these images were previously displayed in Mogadishu during the Somali Arts Foundation (SAF) contemporary photography exhibit titled Still Life ( Oct. 2020). \nCentered on video and photography\, Haa Guumoben Waaliga is an exhibition that explores the passage of time through the everyday contemporary life of  Mogadishu residents before and after the civil war. \nAs artists of the Somali diaspora raised in the United Arab Emirates\, we’ve understood our culture through oral stories from our parents\, theater\, literature\, music\, poetry and folktales. Longing to experience the motherland ourselves\, we traveled to witness firsthand the magical memories and complicated history our parents kept stored in their hearts. Included in our showcase are still and moving images captured by us throughout the years woven with archival sourced from friends and family. \nHaa Guumoben Waaliga aims to offer a time portal to familiar landscapes and sounds in hopes to contribute towards intergenerational conversations about Somali identity at home and in the diaspora today. The sequence of images is a love letter to the people of Mogadishu that are so often stripped of their humanity in Western images. Our exhibition honors their resilience\, dignity\, and beauty. \nWe are not less human— despite the instability\, we remain steadfast in faith and joy. \n– Hana and Samia \n\nArtist Bios\nSomali independent filmmaker Hana Mire studied at the New York Film Academy in Abu Dhabi.

SUMMARY:Din Din: Missing Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Missing Luncheon is facilitated by Karen Krolak with food by Bianca Boragi\, featuring “Breakaway” by Heather Kapplow. \nThis event is part of the exhibition Din Din\, a series of free\, socially-distanced outdoor public events which use food and art to build community. \nReservations\nServed in Two SeatingsFor the 1pm Seating\, Please Make a Reservation hereFor the 4pm Seating\, Please Make a Reservation hereRSVP Mandatory \nLocation: 39-22 29th St\, Long Island City \nProgram Description\nWho or what did you lose in this last year? Normally\, we gather together with loved ones over food after funerals\, break ups\, and job endings but the pandemic halted that system of support. If you have been longing for one of these meals\, Karen Krolak\, creator of the Dictionary of Negative Space\, invites you to gather in the garden where laughter\, tears\, and awkward pauses are welcome to flow. We will dine on a French feast designed by Bianca Boragi and experience a poetic pop up by Heather Kapplow. Feel free to bring memories of what you’ve lost as we share stories\, moments of silence\, and moving metaphors to help us digest our grief. \nArtist Bios\nKaren Krolak is a free range collaborator based in Boston\, MA  She is the co-founder/co-Artistic Director of Monkeyhouse\, an award winning nonprofit that connects communities with choreography. Her ongoing project\, the Dictionary of Negative Space (DoNS)\, is an interdisciplinary lament for the words that the English language lacks for grief\, trauma\, and repair. Much like grief itself\, this unusual dictionary manifests in a variety of unexpected iterations. DoNS offers refuge for mourners grappling with complicated grief and was inspired by her experiences after a car crash killed her mother\, father & brother. \nHeather Kapplow creates participatory experiences that elicit unexpected intimacies using objects\, alternative interpretations of existing environments\, installation\, performance\, writing\, audio and video. “Breakaway” consists of a varied series of audience-enacted gestures woven into multiple Din Din events. It is ritual activity that conflates the notion of theatrical breakaway props — things designed to be destroyed without hurting anyone — with the idea of freedom obtained by breaking away from dysfunctional patterns rooted in traumas from the past. \nBianca Abdi-Boragi works across media using sculpture\, video\, installation\, and painting to enact representations of self and others\, often using found materials and landscapes as receptacles to address different states of being\, with a specific focus on alienation and territory. Tending towards the absurd though with care and respect\, her works respond to the contemporary political and social environment in the United States\, France\, and Algeria\, engaging with themes of gender\, subsistence\, and migration while linking this moment to the historical repercussions of post-colonialism. Abdi-Boragi is a French-Algerian/ American interdisciplinary artist who received her MFA from Yale School of Art\, Sculpture\, in 2017\, and obtained her BFA from ENSAPC. Her shows have been featured on Artnet\, Artspiel\, Taggverk Magazine amidst others. Solo shows include the Border Project Space Gallery and CADAF Art Fair\, she has exhibited with the Immigrant Artist Biennial\, NARS Foundation\, The Border Project Space\, VCU Arts\, NURTUREart Gallery\, Chashama Gallery\, Field Project Gallery\, Galerie Protégé\, The Clemente Soto Velez Center NY\, throughout the United States and internationally and has screened art films at Anthology Film Archive\, UnionDocs\, Video Revival\, NY\, the Whitney Humanity Center\, and Loria Center\, New Haven\, CT. Abdi-Boragi was the recipient of the JUNCTURE Fellowship in Art and International Human Rights from the Yale Law School and was recently in residency at NARS Foundation and previously at MASS MoCA’s studios\, the Centquatre\, Paris\, France\, Pact Zullverein\, Essen\, Germany\, Cal’Arts\, Los Angeles. Abdi-Boragi is also an independent writer/ curator and founder of Gallery Perchée.

SUMMARY:Din Din: Recalling Bitterness Tasting Menu and Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:This program is the closing event for Din Din\, a series of free\, socially-distanced outdoor public events which use food and art to build community. \nLocation: 39-22 29th St\, Long Island City \nProgram Schedule\n7 – 9pm\nThe “Recalling Bitterness Tasting Menu” by Siri Lee and “Breakaway” by Heather Kapplow \n9 – 10pm – Short film and video art program featuring: \nJulia Hechtman “ONLY US”\nPhyllis Ma “Trip the Fruit Fantastic”\nRobbie Samuels “Hip Hop Cafe”\nZina Saro-Wiwa “Table Manners (Season 2): Dorcas Eats Roasted Snails and Drinks Maltina”\nRebecca Shapass “Eggless”\nDana Sherwood “Feral Cakes”\nTobias Rud “Sweetie O’s”\nForest Juziuk “Briars: I’m not good looking but my mother gave me something” \nRecalling Bitterness Tasting Menu\nSiri Lee’s “Recalling Bitterness Tasting Menu” satirizes the Cultural Revolution ritual of “Recalling Bitterness and Savoring Sweetness.” Emerging shortly after a period of unprecedented famine\, this hypocritical ritual was designed to contrast the “bitterness” of life before the Communist Party took power with the “sweetness” of life under its rule. In Siri Lee’s reinterpretation of this ritual\, she instead designed a contemporary “Recalling Bitterness Tasting Menu\,” with each “dish” serving a story of famine and food shortages under the Maoist regime.\n\nBreakaway\n \nHeather Kapplow creates participatory experiences that elicit unexpected intimacies using objects\, alternative interpretations of existing environments\, installation\, performance\, writing\, audio and video. \n“Breakaway” consists of a varied series of audience-enacted gestures woven into multiple Din Din events. It is ritual activity that conflates the notion of theatrical breakaway props — things designed to be destroyed without hurting anyone — with the idea of freedom obtained by breaking away from dysfunctional patterns rooted in traumas from the past. \nFilm Program \nJulia Hechtman\, “ONLY US”\, 5:40 \nIn this multi-channel video installation\, the artist ritualistically covers her hands with\, and consumes fragments of\, her mother’s ashes. \nForest Juziuk “Briars: I’m not good looking but my mother gave me something”\, 12:00 \n\n“Briars” is an experimental soap opera based on the true story of a small group of men living in community apartments in 1980s Southeast Michigan. This episode\, entitled “I’m Not Good Looking But My Mother Gave Me Something\,” consists of a single breakfast-for-dinner scene\, approximately two minutes in length\, in which two newly acquainted friends discuss the meal. There is Otis\, who recently moved to town from parts unknown\, and Junior\, the host and chef. \n\nPhyllis Ma “Trip the Fruit Fantastic”\, 3:09 \nDragonfruits\, watermelon and other fruits come to life in this musical stop motion video. (music by Landen Griffith). \nRobbie Samuels “Hip Hop Cafe”\, 4:20 \nHip Hop Cafe is a film entirely made from golden age rap lyrics.\n \nZina Saro-Wiwa “Table Manners (Season 2): Dorcas Eats Roasted Snails and Drinks Maltina”\, 6:47 \nTable Manners (2019) is a continuation of the ongoing video series that sees individuals in the Niger Delta giving an eating performance for Zina’s camera. The viewer is encouraged to sit down and enjoy the meal with the eaters. All the performers in the series use their hands to eat. At the end of each film the place of the filming is stated. This documentation simply serves to highlight that “an important ritual has taken place”. Saro-Wiwa states: “A powerful exchange takes place when one not only eats a meal but watches a meal being consumed. One is filled up with an unexplainable and potent metaphysical energy that we normally pay no attention to.”  This work places a spotlight on and radicalizes this invisible force. The documentation of the meal and the place it was consumed forces the viewer to also ingest the names and cultural realities surrounding the oil production in the Niger Delta. Realities that are usually ignored or erased. \nRebecca Shapass “Eggless”\, 10:19 \nInspired by Betty Crocker’s marketing strategy (developed by Freud-devotee Edward Bernays) to have housewives “add an egg” to their cakes\, “Eggless” is a meditation on fertility & worship through the lens of eggs as a commercialized symbol of rebirth\, an erotic object\, and an American diet staple. \nDana Sherwood “Feral Cakes”\, 6:28 \nWhile residing deep within the suburban sprawl of South Florida Sherwood began setting out fruits\, vegetables\, meats\, cakes and other confectionery concoctions for the local animal inhabitants.  The menus grew from a knowledge of the natural diet of animals such as raccoons\, foxes\, possums and other creatures she expected to find living along the borders of human habitation. Filming over the days\, weeks and months Sherwood began to get to know the preferences and predilections of their régimes\, and a conversation started to emerge as she watched the videos each morning from the previous nights banquet and adjusted\, tweaked and tested them.  \nTobias Rud “Sweetie O’s”\, 4:00 \nA lonely middle-aged man becomes obsessed with a brand of children’s cereal\, that takes him back to his carefree childhood in his mother’s warm embrace.Animated traditionally with pencil and paper. \nArtist/Filmmaker Bios\nJulia Hechtman is a multi-disciplinary artist\, who makes works about place\, absence\, identification/identity and mortality. \nForest Juziuk is an American artist and writer. Taking inspiration from soap operas\, YA novels\, and TV sketch comedy\, he works with devices familiar and suggestive to explore memory sensation. His work has appeared in the magazine The Minus Times (Drag City)\, and the books The Minus Times Collected (Featherproof) and J&L Illustrated #2 (J&L). He also co-authored the chapter “The ‘Why’ of Arts Organizations in the DIY Era” in the book 20under40: Re-inventing the Arts and Arts Education for the 21st Century. \n \nSiri Lee is an NYC-based interdisciplinary visual storyteller. A potluck of research\, mixed media\, and speculative fiction\, Lee’s work deploys image and wordplay to visualize analogies between material culture and ideology. A recent graduate from the University of Chicago\, Lee has been selected for inclusion in Project Anywhere’s Global Exhibition Program\, 2020; been an artist-in-residence at Residency Unlimited in New York\, 2020; and received the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards Alumni Microgrant\, 2019. Her work has been exhibited in Chicago\, Los Angeles\, and New York. \nPhyllis Ma is a New York-based artist working in photography and animation.

Phyllis’s work has been profiled in The New York Times\, It’s Nice That and Sight Unseen. Select commercial clients include Netflix\, Vice\, Lazy Oaf\, SSENSE and A24. \nRobbie Samuels is a Black-British multi-award-winning advertising-creative\, writer and director. Hip Hop Cafe was a passion project\, and his love letter to the golden age of Hip Hop. \nZina Saro-Wiwa is an artist working primarily with video but also photography\, sculpture\, sound and food. She lives and works in Brooklyn\, New York as well as running a practice in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria where she founded the contemporary art gallery Boys’ Quarters Project Space for which she regularly curates.

She was Artist-in-Residence at Pratt Institute\, Brooklyn 2016-2017 and in April 2017 was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for Fine Arts. \nRebecca Shapass is a filmmaker and interdisciplinary artist from New York City. She works to create bio-mythographic\, audio-visual worlds where the fissures between personal and collective memory are mined to reveal fragile systems of perception and remembering. Her work has been screened and exhibited with institutions and festivals including Microscope Gallery (Brooklyn\, NY)\, Knockdown Center (Queens\, NY)\, Open Signal (Portland\, OR)\, amongst others. She has participated in residencies including Smack Mellon (Brooklyn\, NY)\, Signal Culture (Owego\, NY)\, and Crosstown Arts (Memphis\, TN).

SUMMARY:Doing Nothing Together & The Other Question
DESCRIPTION:Join Kosmologym (Walker Tufts\, Jo Bech Dalsgaard\, Maria Teilgård) and Heather Kapplow for an evening of Doing Nothing Together and an experimental group version of The Other Question. \nDoing Nothing Together is an opportunity to practice resistance to the compulsion of doing\, and an attempt\, in a collaborative way\, to understand what “being” might be about\, if it is not simply “doing”. I am seeking the inherent value of being\, which we tend to have at birth\, but seem to lose somewhere along the way. \nThe Other Question is a divination game about empathizing with other non-human beings\, and the different time scales we exist on. We will play the first living beings to have established full inter-organism communication. We will ask an Other a burning Question\, and then wait for the Answer. It may not arrive in time. \nArtist Bios: \nKosmologym is an art and game design collective. Our games challenge players to encounter more-than-human others and place human bodies in physical relationships to global systems. Kosmologym has created games for Franconia Sculpture Park\, Shafer\, MN\, US; the Philadelphia Science Festival and Bartram’s Garden in Philadelphia\, US; Art Prospect Festival 2018 in Saint Petersburg\, RF;  the Kulturhavn Festival and VEGA Arts in Copenhagen\, DK. We have performed our games in London and Leeds\, UK; Copenhagen\, Aalborg and Aarhus\, DK; Philadelphia and New York City\, USA.  \nkosmologym.com\ninstagram.com/kosmologym \nHeather Kapplow (www.heatherkapplow.com) is an American conceptual artist specializing in participatory experiences that investigate and playfully re-interpret assumptions underlying our social contracts. Kapplow’s strategies include installation\, public engagement\, performance\, text\, audio and video. Kapplow has been awarded numerous grants and fellowships\, and has had work commissioned for galleries\, film and performance festivals within the USA and internationally. \nheatherkapplow.com\ninstagram.com/heather_kapplow\n#doingnothingtogether2021

SUMMARY:Creative tools for art-making\, community building and publishing with Lee Tusman
DESCRIPTION:Produced by Lee Tusman in collaboration with Code&Share[  ] Community and Cantina \nImagine if all illustrators were required to use the same brand and design of #2 pencils or if all photographers could use only one type of camera and film and pay a monthly fee for their continued use. This is the situation today for today’s largest (and best-marketed) digital artmaking suites like Adobe Creative Suite. But a whole world of other exciting\, experimental and artist-friendly tools exist beyond the confines of this. This workshop on creative tools is built for artists\, and small DIY communities\, covering possibilities of image production\, drawing\, photographing\, organizing and experiments. \nIn this workshop we will start with a brief overview of artmaking tools that are alternatives to commercial offerings and then launch into a range of many other experimental and exciting artist software tools such as zine making tools (Electric Zine Maker)\, digital painting software (Krita\, JS Paint)\, painting tools that allow one to collaboratively draw with a computer (NoPaint)\, 3d object scanning (Meshroom)\, and many more. Participants will create mini projects with these tools which we will document with photos and screenshots. By the end of the session we will produce a collaborative zine about these tools and showing the work we’ve created\, with the goal of making this resource available for artists everywhere.

SUMMARY:AFK Party with Sholeh Asgary and Heather Kapplow
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by a collaboration via Zoom through 2020-21 where we developed a series of audience-participatory explorations that used text prompts and immersion in sense and process within the context of Zoom–the corporate technology that has been colonizing our homes\, schools\, places of worship and other gatherings since Covid began–to disambiguate image from experience\, and open up more space for the unresolved. AFK Party is part of our ongoing efforts\, through play\, to remind ourselves and each other that interfaces are not neutral\, and that we don’t have to accept how they frame us.  \nAt AFK Party\, we will facilitate a variety of conversations/activities in a physical format that resembles Zoom to help people adjust to the idea of meeting in person again after so much virtual meeting in the past year or two. IRL Zooming!! At ARoS\, we will discuss our projects during Covid lockdown and also have a workshop where people can make wearable analog Zoom backgrounds to use in our IRL Zoom windows. \nArtist bios: \nSholeh Asgary is an Iranian-born interdisciplinary sound artist whose practice is shaped by her early somatic experiences as a refugee. Situating the body as a site of knowledge\, her immersive works\, performances and audience participatory scores implicate the viewer-participant into future mythological excavations\, bridging large swathes of time and history\, through water\, water clocks\, crude oil\, movement\, light\, imaging\, voice\, and sound. She has exhibited and performed at various institutions including ARoS Kunstmuseum (DK) with Flux Factory (NY)\, Sotheby’s Institute of Art (NY)\, Minnesota Street Project (SF)\, Charlotte Street Foundation (MO)\, and Gray Area Foundation for the Arts (SF). A 2020 California Arts Council grantee for her participatory performance series “Majles\,” she is also a recipient of a 2019 Kenneth Rainin Foundation NEW Commissioning grant through Dance Elixir\, and recipient of a 2014 Alternative Exposure Grant for curatorial initiatives as Curator and Director of Education and Public Programs at Incline Gallery\, where she founded The Project Room. Asgary has participated in numerous residencies\, current and most recently including Mass MoCA (2021)\, Headlands Center for the Arts (2021)\, Real Time & Space (2021)\, Wassaic Project (2020)\, and Kala Art Institute (2020). Currently residing in Oakland\, CA\, where she is a Lecturer at UC Berkeley’s Department of Art Practice\, teaching Global Perspectives in Contemporary Art\, she received her MFA from Mills College and BA from San Francisco State University\, and has lectured extensively on photography. \nHeather Kapplow (no 3rd person pronouns preferred) is a self-trained conceptual artist based in the United States. Kapplow creates participatory experiences that elicit unexpected intimacies using objects\, alternative interpretations of existing environments\, installation\, performance\, writing\, audio and video. Kapplow’s work has received government and private grants\, and has been commissioned for galleries\, film and performance festivals (Ann Arbor Film Festival\, ANTI-Festival\, AREA Code Art Fair\, Datscha Radio Festival\, Flesh Crisis Performance Festival\, Independent Film Festival of Boston\, Illuminus Boston\, ISEA International\, Kulturmødet Mors Festival\, Meetings Festival\, MEM Experimental Art Festival\, Open Engagement Conference) in the US and internationally. As a part of ensemble projects\, Kapplow has performed at the ARoS Kunstmuseum (DK)\, Guggenheim Museum (US)\, Institute of Contemporary Art (US)\, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (US)\, Museo Arte Moderno (MX)\, Museum of Fine Arts Boston (US)\, and the Queens Museum (US)\, and within works by La Pocha Nostra\, Paul Ramirez Jonas\, and On Kawara. Kapplow is also an active member of two art communities that produce work collectively: Flux Factory and Mobius Artists Group\, and an affiliate artist at metaLAB at Harvard University. In addition to practicing art\, Kapplow writes about art for Hyperallergic and others\, and recently co-authored an arts-heavy travel guide to Boston for Emons-Verlag GmbH\, available Spring of 2021.

SUMMARY:Solar Sounders Workshop with Daniel Fishkin
DESCRIPTION:Please RSVP on Eventbrite \nIn this workshop\, we will build musical circuits with circuit boards\, soldering irons\, wires\, solar panels\, and wood. \nA Solar Sounder is a synthesizer played by sunlight. It works opposite from just about every other circuit you might encounter. A Solar Sounder has no batteries\, and no knobs; instead\, its speaker output is governed by sunlight\, powering an internal synthesizer that is designed to work with ever-fluctuating power source. These instruments live outdoors and their sound changes as the shadows of daylight creep along their solar panels. \nBy itself\, a Solar Sounder by itself is a crude machine\, but in a group\, they come to life\, twittering away merrily\, their songs changing as the day passes. If one wants to change the sound—just pick it up and move it into or away from the sunlight\, and see what happens. Unlike most electronic instruments\, tethered to the power grid or wasting batteries\, the solar sounder is self-contained. It makes music continuously and messily; sloughing sound like a cherry blossom tree sheds its petals. After we solder together\, we then form a “solar band”\, combining our circuits together to make a sunlit symphony.

SUMMARY:Intro To Video Feedback Workshop by Jon Sims and Carlos David TC
DESCRIPTION:Jon Sims will be leading an Intro To Video Feedback Workshop where he will go over the basic techniques to create Video Feedback. Video feedback is the process of pointing a camera at the screen displaying the camera’s output. This creates a feedback loop of images infinitely repeating onto and over themselves creating interesting patterns. \nUsing Video Feedback techniques\, a video mixer\, old cameras and a music playlist\, artists Jonathan Sims and Carlos David TC will create visual projections in the space and take photo portraits in real time of those in attendance. \nArtist Bios: \nJon Sims is a New York City based visual artist. Born in Austin\, Texas\, he began his practice with painting\, but has since moved into sculpture\, projection installations\, print and curation. His visual arts practice is characterized by geometric abstractions and light. A consistent premise underlying his work is that a modern human’s relationship with the very ancient past is mirrored in their relationship with the distant future. \nwww.chromadetic.com \nCarlos David TC (born Caracas\, Venezuela\, 1984) is a Queens based artist and experimental filmmaker. His work explores identity in the digital space\, coming of age in the era of reality tv\, and mobile content creation as a mean of communication. \nBy combining humor\, alter egos\, self interviews\, obsolete technologies and infinite digital storage the artist attempts to blur the line between performance and reality by experimenting with the documentation of the “process behind the work” as a performance of its own. The constant need to articulate an identity through documentation produces different sets of self-portraits that are presented via moving image\, screenshots\, screen recording\, films\, memes\, music videos\, text based work\, performance and site-specific installations.

SUMMARY:Flux Factory at at Juxtapose Art Fair
DESCRIPTION:Flux Factory artists Sholeh Asgary\, Heather Kapplow and Jonathan Sims presented at the Juxtapose Art Fair 2021\, which featured 25 artist groups for 3 days at Godsbanen in Aarhus\, Denmark. \n3123 Telegraph Yes\nPresented by Sholeh Asgary + Heather Kapplow\, 3123 Telegraph Yes is part of an ongoing effort\, through play\, to remind ourselves that interfaces are not neutral\, and that we don’t have to accept how they frame us. As we consider meeting in person again\, 3123 Telegraph Yes offers activities in physical form that resemble early Zoom prototypes to encourage a further blurring of boundaries. \nAsgary (USA) and Kapplow (USA) began working together in Aarhus in 2019\, and have spent 2020-21 collaborating on a series of audience-participatory Zoom explorations that questioned this piece of corporate technology that has been colonizing our homes\, schools\, places of worship and other gatherings since Covid began. Their work focuses on disambiguating image from experience\, and opening up more space for the unresolved. \nWe Move in Infinite Space\nWe Move in Infinite Space (2021)\, by video artist Jonathan Sims\, uses mirrors and video feedback to capture and transmit the disorientation of being in our current moment. It is also an invitation to play\, a place to test the waters of feeling joy and freedom again.

SUMMARY:Flux Digital Drink + Draw
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nZoom link sent upon registration \n\nBYOB + art supplies.\nHosted by Lexy Ho-Tai (@lexymakesthings\, she/her) \n\n\nAbout Drink + Draw\nEach week we have four amazing models\, most of whom are artists and performers. To see images of previous models and some drawings\, visit the Digital Drink + Draw album! \nFeel free to drop in for part of it. Bring your own drawing materials and a beverage of your choice. Everybody is welcome! \n\n\n\n\n\nFAQ\n\nQ: Where does it take place?\nA: Good ole’ Zoom! Links will be sent upon registration.\nQ: Is it okay if I come late for the Drink + Draw?\nA: Yes! The event is ‘drop-in’ style\, so come through any time between 7-9:30pm. Stay for as long as you can! \nQ: Do we have to share our drawings?\nA: Not at all! In between sets\, we spent about 5 minutes sharing our drawings (i.e. holding them up to the screen and being spotlit). It’s a very supportive environment\, as folks often say encouraging words about the drawings. However\, this is totally optional – if you’d prefer not to share\, that is absolutely okay! \nQ: Is it free?\nA: Yes! If you’re in the position to support\, we do have a $5-20 suggested donation\, which goes towards tipping the models. All the models are volunteering their time\, so this is very appreciated. However\, no one is turned away due to lack of funds\, and you can show gratitude to the models in other ways: sharing your drawings\, following their creative practices\, etc. BTW\, 15% of the proceeds goes towards Flux!! \nIf you have any Access Needs or questions about the event\, please reach out to lexyhotai@gmail.com. Hope to see you there!!

SUMMARY:Cicada Waves Screening with Ben Seretan
DESCRIPTION:Cicada Waves (NNA Tapes\, 2021) is a startling record in that\, throughout its 47 minutes\, we never hear anything else besides some footsteps\, a piano quietly ringing out\, and the remarkably varied sonic landscapes encountered in a dance studio in the woods one summer. It’s rich and evocative\, but there is truly no other content contained therein. \nIt makes sense\, then\, that Ben Seretan – the piano player in the woods – incorporated two ways of inflating these recordings\, of adding grist to the mill. First\, there are accompanying essays for each track – pieces of writing that examine the colonial history of the land whose sound has been captured and commodified or looks deeply at the weird wood marvel that is a baby grand piano. And there are corresponding videos for each track with images of piano keys dancing like spectres on the horizon\, digital woods\, flowers\, bugs\, stop animation\, and a shirtless hula in a snowstorm. \nThis event will gather and screen the entire visual album for an audience for the first time ever\, a stark contrast to the Internet-only release and deep isolation of its creation. These videos – in combination with the spare\, lovely recordings – are transportative\, nearly hypnagogic\, and at times quite funny. Join us as we “throw open the windows and let the world in.” \nArtist Bios: \nBen Seretan is a musician and writer from Troy\, New York who is working hard. In 2018\, he released a 24-hour-long album of guitar clouds called My Life’s Work. In 2020 came Youth Pastoral\, a lightly dance-music-influenced collection of cathartic full band jammers about breaking up with God (named one of the best albums of the year by Pitchfork). This year – emerging from the Internet as if from a 17-year burrow in the woods – Seretan whipped up Cicada Waves\, a visual album of piano recordings from the riotous and cacophonous woods of north Georgia where\, more often than not\, the piano isn’t played. And every Thursday he sends a new track and a 1\,000 word piece of writing via My Big Break\, a hard-to-describe email newsletter. \nwww.benseretan.com\nread.mybigbreak.zone \nFeaturing work by visual artist Bahareh Khoshooee: baharehkhoshooee.com \nAnd footage by documentarians Hal and Henry Jacobs: www.hjacobscreative.com

SUMMARY:Solar Powered Art Book Launch and Artist Round Table with Alex Nathanson
DESCRIPTION:This event is in celebration of the launch of the book A History of Solar Power Art and Design by Alex Nathanson (published by Routledge on July 30\, 2021). Alex will discuss his practice and introduce guests to this current and innovative topic. Alex will be joined by artists whose work is profiled in the book. The event will also highlight some past Flux Factory members who have worked with solar power. The discussion will be followed by a reception. \nBook Description:\nA History of Solar Power Art and Design examines the history of creative applications of photovoltaic (PV) solar power\, including sound art\, wearable technology\, public art\, industrial design\, digital media\, building integrated design\, and many others. \nThe growth in artists and designers incorporating solar power into their work reflects broader social\, economic\, and political events. As the cost of PV cells has come down\, they have become more accessible and have found their way into a growing range of design applications and artistic practices. As climate change continues to transform our environment and becomes a greater public concern\, the importance of integrating sustainable energy technologies into our culture grows as well. The book can be purchased via most book retailers. Use code FLY21 for a 20% discount when purchasing the book through Routledge’s website. \nAlex Nathanson Bio:\nAlex Nathanson is a multimedia artist\, designer\, technologist\, and educator. His work is primarily focused on exploring both the experimental and practical applications of sustainable energy technologies\, particularly photovoltaic solar power. \nHis artistic collaborators have included Dylan Neely\, Kid Millions\, Carina Kaufman-Gutierrez\, Will Owen\, Kendall Williams\, and Lindsay Packer. His work has been featured at Issue Project Room (NYC)\, the Climate Museum (NYC)\, the Museum of the Moving Image (NYC)\, Anthology Film Archives (NYC)\, Film Society of Lincoln Center (NYC)\, Dome of Visions (Copenhagen\, Denmark)\, and the Art Prospect Festival (St. Petersburg\, Russia)\, among other venues. He was one of the long-term artists in residence at Flux Factory\, in Queens\, NY from 2012 to 2016\, and in collaboration with his multimedia performance group Fan Letters was awarded residencies at The Watermill Center in 2017 and 2019. In 2020\, Solar Protocol was awarded a fellowship from Eyebeam. Most recently\, his book A History of Solar Power Art and Design was published by Routledge. \nWebsite: www.alexnathanson.com\nInstagram Handle: @alexnathanson\nTwitter Handle: @solar4artists

He seeks to understand the textural and structural possibilities that cement has to offer. The paintings are abstract and organic. They resemble whatever the viewer sees\, like looking at clouds\, you’re interpretation is right\, but only partially. what do you see? Alien landscapes\, vaginas or slushice? Jimmy Sommer laver kunstværker fra sin base på Institut for (X)\, Århus. Han lader sige lede af makroperspektiver og former i værkerne. Billederne er abstrakte og organiske. De forstiller hvad end du som seer ser i dem\, så hvis du ser et landskab fra en fremmed planet\, en vagina eller et udklip af en slushice\, så har du ret\, men kun til dels. \n“Jevi From 9 to 11” by Carlos David TC is a fictionalized documentary directed by Carlos David TC and featuring artist Jevijoe Vitug. Inspired by Agnes Varda’s “Cleo from 5 to 7\,” the short film follows Jevi\, a New York based Filipino painter\, as he makes his way from his small studio in New York to the museum where he works 5 days a week as a security guard during the COVID-19 pandemic. A preview screening of an unfinished version of the film will premiere in the auditorium at ARoS Museum\, on September 15 ahead of its New York premiere in October and will be followed by a Q&A with online attendance by Jevijoe Vitug. \nCarlos David TC is a video artist and experimental filmmaker based in NYC. Born in Venezuela and raised in Miami\, his work explores identity in the digital space\, coming of age in the era of reality tv\, and mobile content creation as a means of communication. His practice uses documentation to produce self-portraits that are then presented via moving image\, screenshots\, films\, memes\, music videos\, performance and site specific installations. \nThis event is made possible (in part) by the Queens Council on the Arts with public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council. Carlos David TC is is one of 500 New York City-based artists to receive a grant by the City Artist Corps Grants program\, presented by The New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs (DCLA)\, with support from the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment (MOME) as well as Queens Theatre.

Here\, you could enjoy a cup of chai and a chat with someone who might not resemble you in terms of opinions and appearance. In response to a political debate that rapidly turned black-and-white\, soulitate is a wonderful reminder of how much we actually have in common – and how much we can learn from each other when we engage with and listen to each other.
