Opening Wednesday: Paged, Staged and Engaged

This Wednesday at 5PM marks the opening of an exhibit I am lucky enough to be a part of. Kevin Stein, poet laureate for the state of Illinois will be featured in an innovative collection of digital poetry, design and installation work done by a variety of other Peoria area artists and Bradley faculty. The pieces I have seen thus far are fantastic. The work is just great. The event is going to be held at the Hartmann Center Gallery on Bradley’s campus from 5-7PM on Wednesday. More info is available here.

My piece is a Quartz Composition that combines curated television clips, dynamic generated static and test patterns, and an interactive camera all composited with the poem and a waving star spangled banner. I hope you can make it! This was a fun project to put together, something that introduced me to a new tool and opened a world of possibilities to me creatively as far as how I could envision building an interactive experience.
