Opening Reception: Tuesday, May 24, 5-8 pm
C5 artists include: Steve Durie, Bruce Gardner, Amul Goswamy, Matt Mays, Joel Slayton, Brett Stalbaum, Jack Toolin and Geri Wittig.

San Francisco Camerawork presents The C5 Landscape Initiative, an exhibition featuring work by C5 Corporation, a new media collective based in San Jose, California. The Landscape Initiative is the culmination of three years of research and documentation of C5's performative expeditions into the landscape through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and big data analyses. C5 is interested in how people interact with data, and how data influences the way we interact with our environment.

The exhibition will include media installations that blend innovative uses of digital technologies to explore, navigate and map the landscape on both sides of the globe. Presented through work generated by database software developed by C5, this exhibition features digital photographic prints, fabricated sculptural objects, 3D visualizations and digital video. The exhibition will allow viewers to interact with C5's expeditions, while exploring our relationships to the land in a data driven world.

Through a collaboration with the Whitney Museum's Artport site, http://artport.whitney.org you will be able to access The C5 Landscape Initiative GPS Media Player. The GPS Media Player creates an implicit timeline and meta narratives for each of the Landscape Initiative projects. It provides a means of documenting the projects from their point of common inception, data and process.
