...DVD vrsn of the 0P3NFR4M3W0RK archive
the DVD vrsn of 0P3NFR4M3W0RK for Dain Oh's THE WEB OF COKAYNGE; CANDLE AND BELL screening program is going well. jon.satrom + i worked it out tonite. i've completed the single channel video vrsn of the arhcive + am in the process of passing it to jon.satrom via FTP
in another funny twist, the most effective way for me to make this vrsn was to open all imgs in Preview + then scr rec myself scrolling thru them, which is in fact a technique that Dain is also using in her experimental Machinima works
when jon.satrom downloads the video he will add the frame (conceptually + literally) + compile the final DVD
we worked out the audio together tonite + it snds rly good. the audio is generated from the foofoofoo project by ALKU/IMBECIL. this project creates algorithmic mashups from the preferences defined by user's iTunes libraries. the library we used was the archive of the R4WD10PL4Y84CK800M80X0R AKA Radio Play Back Boom Boxor, the audio companion to the 0P3NFR4M3W0RK project. we previously featured the foofoofoo project in the 2006.01.21 (A) r4WB1t5 micro.Fest @ ENEMY in CHI IL .US

THE WEB OF COKAYNGE; CANDLE AND BELL - Dain Oh (2008)
THE WEB OF COKAYNGE; CANDLE AND BELL - Dain Oh (2008)
http://thewebofcokaygne.info
"THE WEB OF COKAYNGE; CANDLE AND BELL is an experiment that seeks to place curatorial process in the same realm as art. Through particular selection of work WoC mimics the conventions and histories of cinema as a Modernist medium while at the same time epitomizing the information society by working as a decentralized and interactive database. WoC displays different permutations of the moving image in relation to file formats, search queries and methods of artists and non-artists working with the medium of the Internet.
The Web of Cokaygne; Candle and Bell is a three part screening. In a traditional sense it maintains a beginning, a middle and an end. The first section is 0P3NFR4M3W0RK, an open DIY digital art exhibition initiated by Jon Satrom, instantiated by Dain Oh for the Web of Cokaygne; Candle and Bell and previously at (A) r4WB1t5 micro.Fest (initiated by jonCates and jon.satrom). The second portion is 787 Cliparts, by Oliver Laric. A video in which he displays hand-selected clip art that he has found on the Internet in a manner that suggest continuity in motion and the persistence of vision. The third and final section of WoC is a selection of animated GIFs by both artists and non-artists working with the Internet. The artists include Petra Cortright, Olia Lialina, Guthrie Lonergan, Tom Moody, Jon Satrom and Paul Slocum. The selected GIF's are important examples to reflect the history of the moving image. Examples are gif versions of: a goat found on a bowl from Iran's Burnt City, Muybridge's horse, then moving to commercial cartoons, video games and finally, new media and www gif's. The screening will be executed in real time and accompanied by a live piano performance.
The screening is on the 7th of December, 5 pm @ the Nightingale in Chicago." - Dain Oh
