Ian Andrews, born 1961 (Australia) is a Sydney based independent film, video and sound artist who has been practicing since 1981. Much of Andrews' work consists of video/sound collage, "cut-up", and agit-prop culture jamming utilising a diverse range of visual styles from animation to "found" footage. The work is often characterised by themes such as technology and subjectivity. He will present a live performance, followed by discussion around his work and writing. ]]>

sunday 01/10/2006, Electrofringe 2006, Newcastle, Australia
http://www.jasch.ch/
http://www.thisisnotart.org/
http://www.thisisnotart.org/Members/ben/jasch-codespace/
Codespace integrates realtime drawing and motion-images with electronic sounds that evoke an abstract place where organical and crystalline shapes pulsate and flow. Generative (rule-based) processes or algorithms and realtime action by the artist are applied to basic shapes which in conjuction with finely graded colours comprise a rich palette of textures and shapes. empty dark space is inhabited by fast moving abstract shapes, structures with an architectural quality develop over extended periods of time. The piece evolves from dark and minimalist atmospheres to abstract densities, like a digital painting performed before the viewer's eyes. Memory of the images accumulates, obtaining qualities like a painting or etching. Reduction and concentration of elements helps to maintain the crucial focus, build the tension and give insights into the enigmatic and invisible world built of code. ]]>

http://www.thisisnotart.org/Members/ben/lloyd-barrett-mis-en-scene/
Combining schizophonic computer rendered soundscapes with graphical abstractions Mise En Scene is an exploration of film sound - in particular the importance of incidental sound in the creation of effective and diverse virtual environments. Using abstract methods of translating appropriated video and sound Mise En Scene demonstrates the very human ability to make sense out of nonsense when within a set of guidelines and expectations. Mise En Scene ultimately focuses on the creation of scenes from a variety of visual and sonic signifiers, the end result being akin to a strange dream open to interpretation. ]]>
