See Eye See Eye
A night of peculiarly(and incredibly!) awesome video works by various artists from around the world!
Juliana Mundim
Title: Things That Happen When I Think of You

Lemeh42
Lemeh 42 work with digital animation and illustration
Title: Inner Klänge
In 1910 Kandinskij published one of his most important works, Klänge (Sounds). The general principle of Klänge was the liberation of the inner sound. One century later, Lemeh42 realizes a personal homage to this russian painter. Inner Klänge (Inner sounds) is an animated journey to find the Inner sound.
Alysse Stepanian
Video Title: ImXCocteau
While manipulating footage from Jean Cocteau’s Blood of A Poet, I sensed the excitement that Cocteau must have felt eighty years ago, when he manipulated images through filming tricks and technology of the time. The video was created using IMX, and the sound, by Philip Mantione, was created using MAX/Msp.
Alysse Stepanian is a filmmaker and multimedia artist. She is the creator and curator of the Manipulated Image video screenings at the Santa Fe Complex in USA.
Osvaldo Ciblis

Artist born in Montevideo, Uruguay, 1961. Lives and works in Trento, Italy. His work is mainly oriented towards drawings and computer sounds. Since 1998 he participate frequently in exhibitions and different real and virtual events.
Gwyneth Anderson
Title: Emulation
Attempted synchronicity.
Gwyneth Anderson is a Chicago-based artist whose work exists in a variety of media including video, animation, installation, and drawing. Her work explores perception, emotion, and the connection between humanity and landscape. She has exhibited and screened work in Chicago at Pop-Up Art Loop, Harrison Park, Sullivan Galleries, Links Hall, the Humboldt Moving Picture Show, the Bridgeport Festival of New Motion Picture, and the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation; Conrad Wilde Gallery in Tucson; the XL Art Space in Helsinki; and in unaffiliated outdoor sites in the mid-western US and western Finland. She has collaborated with Odradek Theater, and been commissioned by the Neo-Futurists theater group and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She was an artist-in-residence at Harold Arts in Chesterhill, Ohio and Arteles Creative Center in Haukijärvi, Finland in 2011.
Richard O' Sullivan
Richard O’Sullivan is an artist in new media. He graduated from the M.F.A. program in Film Production/ Direction at U.C.L.A Film School in Los Angeles (University of California at L.A.), and from the University of Warwick. His videos explore the meanings of place, and have focused on the contradictions of the Californian landscape. Other works have explored visual perception and video technology.
Title: Broken Windows
Broken Windows consists of the last footage shot with a digital camcorder: these are the dying gasps of the camera. On one level, the piece might serve as a de-mystification of the digital image; the degradation of the footage broadly implies the processes by which the real world is interpreted as video. Video’s constitution of the world as image is laid bare, and it is disconcerting to see the torturous decay of the material as the camera fights to maintain its simulation of the world.
On another level, however, the piece implies the impossible mystery of most technology for most viewers. The functioning of the camera, evident in the image only when it fails as here, is something which most of us can’t - or don’t want to - understand. We comprehend technology so little, that we must engage with it on a purely aesthetic level as a source of magic or wonder.

Michael Filimovicz

He is on the faculty in the School of Interactive

Di-Ay Battad
Using both abstracted and referential images and sound, and driven largely by tone and image-sound relationships, “See Eye See Eye” combines stop- frame animation with heavily processed found footage. Addressing both the human eye’s experience with recording media and technology, as well as the technology’s experience with the human eye, “See Eye See Eye” communicates the tendencies of both eye and technology to deteriorate and construct experiences.
Di-ay Battad (a.k.a. Brenda Battad) is a Pittsburgh-based artist who creates video, sound, and installations. Through appropriation, animation, and performance, Di-ay’s work explores the tendencies of human, cultural, and digital memory in constructed past, present, and future experiences. Di-ay has performed and exhibited locally, nationally, and internationally.
