Streaming Museum, an international public art and online museum, will celebrate its Fourth anniversary on January 31 with the US premiere of “Emotion Forecast” and “Occupy Wall Screens,” real-time artworks by the renowned French artist Maurice Benayoun.

“Emotion Forecast” and “Occupy Wall Screens” are part of Maurice Benayoun’s ongoing series on the “Mechanics of Emotions” which translate emotions into maps, performances, the Emotion Vending Machine, and sculpture relics of the world.

The reception will take place from 6 to 8 pm on January 31, 2012, at the Eventi Hotel’s Bar Basque, designed by futurist Syd Mead (839 Avenue of the Americas). Guests will meet Benayoun and enjoy dramatic views of the exhibition on the Big Screen. Please RSVP by January 29.
