I will be participating in the SIX x ATE: Sound, Time, Space group show opening at 937 Liberty on 12/31/2012. Casey Droege curated the show based on the participants on her SIX x ATE project, which is a mix of dinner party and artist lecture/performance. My contributions will include a record player playing the new Hexagon 8" recently released on Host Skull Ongoing Box as well as a selection of videos documenting three different MODULES performances. We'll be doing a new MODULES performance in the space on Friday, January 25 for the Gallery Crawl. More info below:

SIX x ATE: Sound, Time, Space features the work of local artists who have participated in an ongoing dinner and lecture series of the same name. The series was created by Casey Droege to promote an interdisciplinary conversation in Pittsburgh. For each event, six artists and one cuisinier were invited to present work on a theme while guests came together to eat, listen and converse. The series has sparked a number of collaborations and will continue on next year. 

Join us during First Night Festivities on New Year's Eve at the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust's gallery at 937 Liberty Ave. Be sure to stay for a performance by Lizzy De Vita. The show will also be up for the Gallery Crawl on January 25th.

Artists featured in the exhibit include:

The sixth iteration of the MODULES composition was created for video. Two TVs ran a series of stop-motion clips with movement by Taylor Knight and Amy Wellock-Staggs and music by Will Dyar, Ben Montgomery, and myself. Assemble, the Garfield gallery, housed the video installation along with great work by Emily Walley, Justin Hopper, Nina Barbuto, and others. The above documentation takes the two sequences and lines them up into one, easily-digestible viewing. All locations were filmed along a fictional ley line running through Pittsburgh's Oakland neighborhood.
