——————————————————————————————
GILES HENDRIX and ANDY GRAYDON
Giles Hendrix (gesture.org) and Andy Graydon are experimental media artists exploring the relationship between sound and vision. Integrating original video, diegetic sound, original audio, and remixed music they will create a synced multimedia performance that reinterprets time and space.

MOSTRA
Mostra are Gabriela MOnory + Caspar STRAcke, Mexican and German videoartists. They play video samples with Glenn Gould style, showing imagery filtered with political plug-in's and juxtaposed with flickering fast timelapse film collages of ascii layers and, most recently, with visual 70's grooves. Cut up - yet sexually charged.
Mostra's GERM Half Caspar Stracke performs as _STRA in STRATTON's REMOTE palace, whereas its MEX half, Gabriela MOnroy, or MO_ logs in REMOTELY live from Florida! Yah!

DAVID BELIS
Dave Belis is an audio engineer turned computer artist. He primarily works in live collaborations. His work focuses on placing technology in a public sphere through more traditional modes of performance. Interactions between live performers and the computer create synchronized video of complex patterns and repetitions. These images function as visual representations of the transactions between the performers and the computer. Dave is a recent graduate of the School of Visual Arts, MFA Computer Art Department.

JOSHUA GOLDBERG and HABITRAIL
joshua goldberg has been doing terrible things to computers and projectors since be began programming live visualism in 2000. he is overwhelmingly honored to have the great habitrail at his side.

VJ UMM THESE WAFFLES SURE DO TASTE DELICIOUS and GLOMAG
VJ UTWSDTD is Remote Lounge co-owner Bob Stratton, who will be demonstrating an "audience participation" interactive live video installation using Remote's blue-screen stage. It is basically something Myron Krueger did better over 30 years ago, but to hell with both progress and originality. Glomag (the inimitable Chris Burke) will provide the funky beats
