The labyrinthine passageways of the crypt act as the space for a re-interpretation of seville’s Holy Week processions. Guided by sound, audiences are encouraged to explore the space as drum marches, brass bands, tolling bells and the shuffling feet of marching penitents process through the crypt’s darkened corridors. The
space will be animated by moments of loudness and profound quiet in turn, characterised by both an austerity of presentation and a rich, cinematic listening experience.

Special opening event Friday 8th August 7 – 9pm.
Performance starts at 7:30pm.
The exhibition will be opened with a special event in the crypt featuring the premiere of a new work, in which a selection of Tomas Luis de Victoria’s ‘Tenebrae Responsories’, sung live by the Londinium choir, are interleaved with a selection of pieces from the installation.

A Journey Through Tottenham explores how people describe themselves and their attitudes toward living in a multicultural community. The seven participants are connected along a chain of difference, with each person being asked to nominate someone who is different to themselves to take part.

After the screening of the film there will be a discussion about identity, which will explore concepts such as whether being in a multicultural community makes you more aware of your own cultural identity and how people from other countries who are now permanent residents view themselves.

Ayiah uses digital filmmaking as a means of connecting communities – in fact, the original title of the film was Nodes of Connection.

The event is free and is supported by Haringey Libraries.

Inspired by Vital Regeneration’s recent collaboration with the City Of Westminster and CityWest Homes to create FreqOUT! (www.freqout.blogspot.com), this will be an opportunity for media artists to find out more about the expanding employment and commissioning opportunities in the Regeneration and Housing sector.

Invited speakers from housing and regeneration agencies, and media artists who have experience of the field, will explore housing associations’ objectives when commissioning arts projects. The forum will also explore barriers that artists experience to working in this arena.

Artists attending will leave with an understanding of the skills and capabilities needed to work in this context, and the challenges of working with young people, who are often the main beneficiaries of creative regeneration schemes. This will be an opportunity for both perspectives - arts and housing - to share their experiences and increase their likelihood of participating in successful arts and regeneration partnerships in the near future. For more information please contact Amy Robins at arobins@cwh.org.uk

The centrepiece of the exhibition is Viktor, a large wall-drawing machine that is controlled by an adapted version of ordinary design software and powered by small industrial motors. On Thursday evenings the gallery will host a variety of speakers – including designers, artists and musicians – who are themselves known for using technologies in more or less orthodox ways. During these events Viktor will trace accompanying material on the gallery wall, the image remaining in place for the following week.

Other exhibits include a machine for creating hole-punched posters, and a specially-adapted handheld printer, and all of the works will allow visitors to explore the relationship between technology and expression. Moving away from the blunt duality of man vs. machine, it is now possible to appreciate the particular qualities of various forms of mechanical and digital mark-making. Technologies can be enjoyed for their poetry and exploited for their spare capacity – their ability to undertake tasks not foreseen by their makers.

Lehni, the creator of Viktor, is interested in the nature of tools, and reworks technologies to suit his own needs, often defying the apparent closure of proprietary software. After seeing one of Lehni's drawing machines at work, Rich – a deft observer of accidental meaning – opened a discussion with the designer about the machine's historical and cultural context. Since this time the pair have had an ongoing exchange about the tools of communication and the potential of customised and corralled technology.

All furniture in the exhibition has been designed by Martino Gamper.

‘Automamusic’ breathes the ghost back into the machine, inhabiting the figurative space between sound and source, when music had not yet become abstracted into the grooves of the gramophone record. In addition to the series of hand-printed cibachrome photographs which recall spiritualist photography, the exhibition includes drawings inspired by early patents for mechanical or hybrid musical instruments.

The film ‘Automamusic’ was developed with support from Film and Video Umbrella, funded by Arts Council England and Artsadmin, with kind assistance Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network and a special thanks to the Museum of Music Automatons, Seewen, Switzerland.

BackStrikesEmpire, filmed on location in Western Australia and New South Wales, is the follow up Warstars, part one of Igloo’s trilogy, shot in Iceland, and premiered at the International Festival of Film & New Media in Athens and touring throughout the UK and Europe.

The trilogy uses moving images, dance and customised design software to explore the elemental forces of climate and its effect on geological formations, to reflect the interaction between people and landscape and illustrate the interpretation the human imagination places on the environment. The images and choreographed narratives interweave to challenge notions of the reality of nature and how it can be influenced by individual experience and collective mythology. The as yet untitled final part of the trilogy will be shot sometime in 2007 and will bring together the strands and ideas presented in parts one and two to form a completed narrative.

“Why, Herr Doctor, did you immediately assume your wife had been strangled?”

“Prostitutes are usually strangled.”

Bluebeard, a novella by Max Frisch, is about a very ordinary doctor who is on trial for the murder of his sixth wife. Since Doctor Schaad is not entirely sure of his innocence, the play charts his attempts to remember what happened on the day of the murder. As the pressure mounts, events from his past blend into reality, confronting the audience with the fragile relationship between memory and perception.

pirateutopia.org play with live and recorded action as the actor performs against and interacts with live-mixed video projection to create this challenging and moving piece adapted by pirateutopia.org from Max Frisch's novella.

pirateutopia.org was formed to integrate actors with technology without gimmickry. The company is committed to the use and advocacy of Open Source software, especially the Linux operating system.

Two evenings examining the growing crossover between body-reactive interfaces, large screen displays and public/performative interventions.

b>d>s specialise in the participation of the public and performers in real-time environments where the content generated enhances human attributes such as identity, memory, touch and presence. This 'body at the centre' view is unique and necessary for effective, interactive environments for public involvement. The body of the public and the performer is now engaged in the creative generation of data in a variety of environments and interactive installations enabling exploration of the future potentials of the human body to control and influence data.

b>d>s will show examples from artists who are creating interactive environments immersing the body in reactive data. These events are aimed at creating exchange, debate and vision-sharing between movement and digital artists and practitioners. The focus will be on a deeper consideration of the attributes and creativity of the human body itself.

The Brentford Biopsy is a participatory mapping project which will be using a range of creative methods to visulise the ecological, cultural and economic 'health' of Brentford (London, UK).
Instead of taking tissue samples as one would from a human subject we will be using range of cultural probes to investigate the local social body and its particular issues. Like eastern medicine we will be taking a holistic view of Brentford that looks for interconnections between problems and challanges to get a sense of the whole. The project acts as both creative art project as well as hard nosed consultation with invited stakeholder groups like politicians, historians, schools, chamber of commerce and ecologists.

The show evolves as it moves between the different gallery spaces: several artists’ projects will be remade to reflect the locality of the three different cities visited, and additional artists will join the exhibition at different stages of the tour. Projects by Cleo Broda and Richard Dedomenici will be previewed when the show reaches Danielle Arnaud contemporary art.

The Day-to-Day Data launch events at each of the gallery venues also provide an opportunity for an ongoing performance by Sam Curtis.

Day-to-Day Data brings together a group of twenty artists who take a methodical and scientific approach to questioning the world around them. Through the analysis and representation of the data they collect, they can offer a truly new and often amusing vision of our own daily existence.

This special event at the ICA offers an introduction to this multi-media project, which has been touring the county in 2005 and which is concurrently on show at Danielle Arnaud contemporary art in Lambeth.

Five of the twenty artists involved in Day-to-Day Data will present the ideas and methodologies of their new works for the show, which address a fun and varied array of subjects. These include: the history of words, the movement of fugitive shopping trolleys around the city, the patterns in everyday routine, Nail Salon distribution in Greater London and the news headlines that occur as you eat your evening meal.

The artists will consider the similarities and differences between each of their systems of research and practice and, in turn, aim to present a coherent journey through the greater concepts of Day-to-Day Data.

Using a live feed from the web, "Decorative Newsfeeds" presents up to the minute headline news from around the world as a series of pleasant animations sent to a bespoke ultrabright LED screen, allowing passers by and visitors to a nearby supermarket to keep informed while contemplating a kind of readymade sculpture in London's Forest Hill.

There are three fixed tracks on the LED screen in blue, amber and green and text runs along them in both directions and at different speeds according to a simple set of rules. The result is a phasing and evolving automatic drawing.
