Monkey Town, Williamsburg's singular video eatery, offers a
twice-yearly video art program - called our 'semiennial' - of the high
water marks, the standouts, the stuff we've seen that really made an
impression: the immersive video equivalent of "come hang out at my
place and listen to some records."

The curatorial criteria are no more complicated than this is the best
new stuff we've seen. We continue to be turned on to great work and
we're just itching to pass it along.

Featured artists include:
Open Arms
Josh Atlas
Lew Baldwin
Michael Bell-Smith and Aa
