Ted Hayes and Lindsey Case: Ophos.
Special Event: April 27, 2013. 7pm - 10pm.
Ophos comments on both the nature of our relationship to sound and sonic environments as well as our relationship to our planetary environment: Ophos is synthesized out of our plastic refuse: discarded bottles and containers coalesced into a new lifeform who we will briefly occupy.
Produced in collaboration with Lindsey Marcelle Case, chef, bakeress and food-writer.
Ted Hayes is a hacker-poet, conceiving objects and experiences that explore the sublime and the enigmatic through recombination, emergence and deconstruction. He is a proponent of what he has dubbed “Research Art,” or art as science experiment: a work driven by questions, but without obvious conclusions, that raises new questions while enveloping and engaging the audience. Ted’s works range from a group of language-inventing robots to a mythological city-founding ritual for soprano and string quartet, is a graduate of NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications Program, and is recently the recipient of a New Radio and Performing Arts commission. Ted has spoken on the subject of Research Art and Language Machines at TEDxGallatin, Crossing Arts Gallery and Dorkbot.
SPECTROGRAPH: Maximus Clarke + Ted Hayes
Opening: Friday, August 19th, 2011. On view until August 28th, 2011
Can images and sounds be understood through their decomposition—and how are we to decompose them? Maximus Clarke's and Ted Hayes’ split show at Devotion Gallery peers through images and tears apart sound in an effort to limn their boundaries and recapitulate them in new forms, consuming their source media in the process.
Clarke's "3DOLATRY: Constructions + Deconstructions I-VI” is a series of anaglyph stereographic portraits that evoke a hyperreal yet synthetic continuum, then morph into impossible compositions that subvert both the 3D medium and the truths of vision itself. (Anaglyph 3D glasses will be provided for viewing the images.)
Hayes' “Deconspectrum” guts our monolithic perception of sound and lays out its component viscera in the form of flickering, colored light-cubes, leaving them out in the open to decompose into a new and unprecedented autonomy.
