Fwd: showing at Media Art Biennale WRO and ATHENS Video Art Festival

Dear Friends, Colleagues, Art Lovers and Haters
- we are speeding up!
Coming up next, two works at two events in two weeks:

'SPAM the musical'
WRO 09
Media Art Biennale Wroclaw / Poland
May 5h - 10th

Based on the texts of email-spam, 'SPAM the musical' is spam-turned-video-art.
Using the tools of web 2.0 and viral marketing 'SPAM the musical'
combines the strength of social media with video art, attitude with
anarchy, and casting with exploitation.

'NO CURE'
ATHENS VIDEO ART FESTIVAL
Technopolis Athens / Greece
May 14th-17th

Based on the structure of karaoke, the 4-channel video installation NO
CURE  features four 80-year-old Germans, singing the lyrics of three
The Cure -songs: Cold, One Hundred Years and Sinking. As the
electronic score composed by Melbourne composer David Chisholm uses
leitmotifs of Richard Wagner's opera Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the
Gods) to accompany the lyrics, the work drifts into a poetic and eerie
comment on the transience of life and memory.
