Thursday, March 29th
Blithe Riley/James Rouvelle

*Blithe Riley*
Blithe Riley works with video, performance & installation, combining narrative elements with systemic based structures and exploring the operations of spectatorship in various contexts. Incisive and uncomfortable, her works reveal us to ourselves and turn the audience-performer relationship on its head. She has screened nationally & internationally at the Hallwalls Contemporary Art Center, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, The Warhol Museum and The European Media Arts Festival.

*James Rouvelle*
James Rouvelle is an intermedia wizard, a guru of electronics & programming and a genre-defying creator. His current efforts can be described as shared, de-centralized, perhaps even aimless events, unfocussed by design. He makes devices and situations that investigate collective intelligence, enhance social relationships and foster empathy through the practice of listening and dialogue. Tonight, he presents “Collaborative, Synchronous Oscillation”, an interactive work for participating audience and his own sound-making, artifically intelligent sculptures.
