At St. Cornelius Chapel on Governors Island, Stephen Vitiello’s and Steve Roden’s The Spaces Contained in Each is a 25 minute multi-channel sound installation based on recordings of “silence”. In Daniel Temkin’s Internet Psychic Phone Repair a mannequin fortune teller delivers a mix of NYC marketing vernacular, Markov-flavored spam phrasings, and a symbology of stale mysticism and Internet detritus. Xu Wenkai’s Cloud.data 2010 simulates a small region of a dark sky, but in the other way this matrix is able to contain a boundless 3-dimension sky of a digital reality. In Steve Bull’s and Kathleen Huler’s Augmented Rality War of 2012 visitors with their smart phone, iPad and Android tablets take a self guided augmented reality tour of scenes of the War of 1812.

[Jul 20 – Sep 2 2013] Stephen Vitiello and Steve Roden: The Spaces Contained in Each
The Spaces Contained in Each is a multi-channel sound installation based on recordings of “silence.” Sound and visual artists, Steve Roden and Stephen Vitiello have collected pre-recorded works on vinyl that relate to themes of silence as well as their own field recordings of quiet spaces. For the installation at Saint Cornelius Chapel, these recordings will be mixed and spatialized as a response to the artists’ experience in the space.

[Jun 15 – Sep 2] Daniel Temkin: Internet Psychic Phone Repair
A Midtown vendor holds a sign advertising what might be a session with a fortune teller or perhaps a quick fix for iPhones. Only this vendor is himself the fortune teller: a mannequin with a card dispenser in his torso. The fortunes he delivers play meaning off nonsense, in a mix of NYC marketing vernacular, Markov-flavored spam phrasings, and a symbology of stale mysticism and Internet detritus. This event is part of 2013 New York Electronic Art Festival, produced in part through the Harvestworks Artist in Residence Program.

[Jun 15 – Sep 2] Xu Wenkai: Cloud.data 2010
Cloud.data simulates a small region of a dark sky, but in the other way this matrix is able to contain a boundless 3-dimension sky of a digital reality. Clouds generated by the artist’s computing language are seen flying over the screens… So how do we feel the textile dimension, the color, or even temperature…of a virtual object? Apparently, we very much rely on the knowledge understanding of the technology application, but maybe in the not far future, a sixth sense will finally be stimulated in human body to deal with the cyber reality. Cloud.data iPhone / iPad app is available on the Apple Store. XU Wenkai aka Aaajiao is one of the artists featured in Lost in the Labyrinth: Sound Art in China curated by Xiaoying Juliette YUAN. This event is part of 2013 New York Electronic Art Festival. More information: http://www.harvestworks.org/jun-15-sep-2-xu-wenkai-cloud-data-2010/
