[PAM] Perpetual Art Machine
Organized by Chris Borkowski, Aaron Miller, Raphaele Shirley and Lee Wells

"If there is any movement or group of artists who have inherited the mantel of Nam June Paik it is this group, although of course they are doing their own thing." - Michael Rush, Art Basel, Art Salon, December 2006

"Cacophonous juxtapositions give way to calming abstractions as video works, and reworks, its magic" - Sarah Kessler, Artkrush.com

[PAM] presents its most evolved and emergent system to date. Perpetual Art Machine is a living archive and research project that offers a global survey of 21st century video art. In a little over a year, the [PAM] community and video database/archive has grown to over a thousand established and emerging video artists contributing artwork on a global level. By inviting both the artist and the viewer/user to participate in its interactive installations and its online free community video portal the whole process and evolving systems culminate in an immersive and interactive video experience that democratizes the curatorial process through folksonomies (keywords) and user participation.

In just over one year, [PAM] has been presented in 9 countries and 16 cities through installations, screenings and lectures. The project has also expended its role in the world of video art by the use of web 2.0 practices and community out reach that encouraged it's artist and curator members to curate freely from the website video gallery and database. [PAM] continues to further the awareness and understanding of video art.

[PAM] will be presenting its first exhibition at the Chelsea Art Museum August 13-25 curated by Nina Colosi. In addition to the interactive installation, [PAM] will be hosting a roundtable discussion and will be featuring single and large scale three-channel video projects from the most innovative artists in the [PAM] community.
