NEW FORMS FESTIVAL 2008 | TECH FORMS
Live 1 hour 15 minute audiovisual set, IN MEDIAS RES, performed for The New Forms Festival on Saturday, September 6th, 2008.
IN MEDIAS RES is a piece about 12 different characters "caught" in acts that are neither definitive nor poignant. Each character was found in the middle of things. The video cut, looped and scratched in sync with live experimental techno.
New Forms Media Society is a non-profit society and media arts organization founded in 2000 that nurtures and connects local and international arts, science and grassroots communities through the annual New Forms Festival.
By promoting Canadian Artists in collaboration with the international arts and technology world, the NFF facilitates multimodal art works and engages in discussion on their role in our cultural environment. Since its inception, an integral element of the NFF is the recognition of independent and groundbreaking artists; the NFF aims to showcase and increase awareness of these artists and their work within our community and beyond by promoting them within a larger milieu.
The NFF is part of a larger, international, multi-media festival movement, which explores the ever changing and evolving world of art and creates a platform for artistic growth. The society wishes to make new media art, music, film, technology base-based installation and performance accessible to a wider audience.
