Re: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists
Hello Lana, this might interest you, it’s my only (wonderful and unexpected) experience with datamoshing. http://vimeo.com/55690414 It has been shown in Athene, Brooklyn, Portland, Brussels, ... That was also unexpected for me In Belgium there is also the artist Nicolas Provost; he uses the technique with foundfootage (hollywood and pornographic material). We are both distributed by http://www.argosarts.org/?lang=en . All the best. Colinet André From: lana Sent: Monday, September 22, 2014 9:52 PM To: frameworks@jonasmekasfilms.com Subject: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists Hi all, I have been trying to remember the name of a collaborative duo that made some videos I saw a few years ago. One of the long works was a video made from a Hollywood western. They used a technique that recorded digital glitches and artifacting that left streaks and blocks of color. Ring any bells? Any other suggestions of folks working with Digital Cinema/Video Art in a self-referential way, (the self being Digital Cinema), would be appreciated as well.

Turns out that Lossless #3," the piece in question, was included in the sold-out screening last night at REDCAT. Hope some of you made it.

Re: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists
Lana, I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. It's not an absolute Glitch Video as we may consider now, but I did a video art dealing with Digital Cinema in 2001 taking a Lumiere brothers short film (The Arrival of a Train) and considering the pixels as a fundamental part of the aesthetics: Unitled (2001) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OX2tuSXNRA I've also a book in spanish about "Error in apparatus as aesthetic value" that you can have it through Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MHY2BFY or you can ask me for the PDF that mention several glitch related artists. There is a short paper version in english: http://schianchi.com.ar/error-in-apparatus-as-aesthetic-value-2010/ Best, Ale 2014-09-22 16:52 GMT-03:00 lana : > Hi all, > I have been trying to remember the name of a collaborative duo that made > some videos I saw a few years ago.

Re: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists
That's a nice variety of approaches, on ungun for example. I suspect most of the glitch people are by now self-consciously referential. Kim Asendorf has been curating a lot of this recently (in .gif format, naturally enough). c.f. http://fa-g.org/ongoing . Some of the major or else visible and feted players are collected there, including Yoshihide Sodeoka and Rosa Menkman. See also http://we-make-money-not-art.com/archives/2013/07/glitch-momentums.php . There tends to be a conscious focus on image consumption, rather than film per se. SAIC (Jon Cates e.g.) is also working in this vein. I want to add that, in my own partially vetted opinion, a lot of this work comes out of music technology research. Glitch in 1994 and earlier is for me a product of lots of people, of whom Markus Popp is well known and visited CalArts if I recall correctly, possibly as early as 1997. To my far-secondhand knowledge it is Yasunao Tone who invented the technique of placing perforated tape on an optical disc. Kim Cascone too. The tradition is an old one and if you trace it via microsound it goes back via Roads and Truax at least as far as Xenakis. Basinski is also useful in this regard, i.e. attention to the disintegrations of the magnetic. Cheers, and thanks for your time.

Re: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists
um, this is kindof awkward ~ I make & screen "glitch video". I love talking about datamoshing and other codec alteration processes work; it is unlike any analog film process, though analogies abound. I used to do 16mm hand-altered film, that’s part of why I’m on this list, it’s the tradition I came out of. I’m also a theory person, so the “why glitch” conversation is very important for me, though I can’t claim to speak for anyone or glitch as a whole. Work samples are at my website, http://drawclose.com. Jessica On Sep 22, 2014, at 4:13 PM, robert harris wrote: > Evan Meaney is deeply involved with the digital glitch.

Re: [Frameworks] Glitch video artists
Evan Meaney is deeply involved with the digital glitch. Smart guy, good artist, fine human being. Has not worked, as far as I know, with hollywood western footage. Some of Meaney's work uses his own home (VHS) "movies", making it self-referential and medium-referential. He teaches in South Carolina, if you want to find him.
