Your lineup for the evening includes:

DOCTOR T (EMILE TOBENFELD)'s artistic sensibility is strongly influenced by
his education (Ph.D in Physics), and his fascination with improvisation in
all forms. His sonic and visual experiments apply a scientist's and
photographer's eye for texture, geometry, form, and the interaction of light
and surface, a strong sense of collage, and an abiding curiosity about
technology's use in creating music and visual art.
Dr.T is joined by CLAIRE BARRATT of Cilla_Vee Movement Projects. Claire
specialized in Motion Sculpture, a unique art form in which the artist
becomes a living sculpture  piece. Gradually melting and morphing through
transitions of shifting forms, constantly reinventing itself. Special audio
by deknow.

With BRAD SWINDELL no video stream from any source is safe from being yanked
out of the air and dropped into his laptop.  Once there, clips are mixed,
scratched, and looped to music, creating a whole new context for the images.
Next thing you know, Celebrity Boxing is playing with Radiohead, and
Bollywood clips are jumping to Basement Jaxx beats.

the Merce Cunningham Dance Company for ten years, and many of the Atlas¹
works have been  collaborations with choreographers, dancers, and
performers, including Yvonne Rainer, Michael Clark, Douglas Dunn, Marina
Abramovic, Diamanda Galas, John Kelly, and Leigh Bowery.  Atlas is the
recipient of three Bessie (New York Dance and Performance) Awards. His
feature-length film "Merce Cunningham: A Lifetime of Dance" won the Best

CHIKA IIJIMA is a visual artist from Japan who has been living and working
in New York City since the early 90's. She combines video with graphic
imagery to traverse an emotional range by processing them through real-time
