Cummings Gallery Opening Reception

featuring works by Natalie Jeremijenko, Snow Yunxue Fu & Luke Hampton, a canary torsi and ARCOS Dance Company

4:30 - 6 p.m., Cummings Galleries

Natalie Jeremijenko

xHIBITION: Creative Systems for the Improvement of Local Human and Environmental Health

xHIBITION is a collaborative space, full of prototypes, devices, and plans for action in our shared environmental commons. Projects range from waste-powered, tree-based cloud storage, to hacked, contaminant-sensing robotic dogs, from a suspended urban farm to zipline-based rapid transit and more. All of these are conceived as propositional, open “prescriptions” from Natalie Jeremijenko’s Environmental Health Clinic. Together, they outline a collaborative plan harnessing existing human expertise and structural resources on campus to radically reimagine and redesign public infrastructure. xHIBITION is an invitation for the college to take on a role of intellectual leadership in addressing what Jeremijenko calls the “space race of the 21st century,” redesigning our relationship to natural systems to improve human and environmental health.


Open through March 4, Cummings Main Galleries, Second Floor

Snow Yunxue Fu and Luke Hampton

"Still" video installation

The architectural video installation project Still finds Edwin Abbott’s novel Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions as a primary inspiration, a story centered on two-dimensional geometric figure, a Square who is occupying a land of flatness, but through a series of encounters with a higher dimensional being who is a sphere discovering a greater reality outside of his own limited gates of perceptions. Likewise, the virtually rendered work of Snow Yunxue Fu thrives to guide the viewers into a metaphorical higher dimensional world, where the artwork becomes necessary physical symbols for the viewer’s physical perception in relation to the greater reality, and the installation function as a port.

4:30 - 6 p.m., White Box Gallery, Cummings third floor

a canary torsi: Stephan Moore, Yanira Castro, Kathy Couch, Julie Wyman

"Performance Portrait: Live"

a canary torsi’s newest collaborative project, "Performance Portrait: Live" (working title) is a multi­channel, interactive video installation that invites spectators to an intimate encounter with a performer. Four life­size HD video images (16:9 aspect ratio) are projected in portrait mode onto four 7’ by 12’ vertical screens to form the environment. Each video image is a different performer holding the gaze of the spectator. Using Kinect2 sensors, the movement of the spectator is tracked and specific moments of the video are mapped to each spectator. In “Performance Portrait: Live,” time is arrested and manipulated, and the live action is that of the audience – whose performance as spectator determines playback of the recorded image.


4:30 - 6 p.m., Cummings 301, Third Floor

ARCOS Dance Company

"ANNI" (Archival Narrative Network Initiative)

ANNI is a transmedia artwork combining interactive public installation, live performance, and an online exhibit. The installation will collect audio responses from symposium participants under the guise of an artificially intelligent time capsule project, which caters its prompts specifically to individual contributors. This audio will then be processed and mixed live into a multimedia dance performance and presented as scattered remnants of the spacebound time capsule in a future in which humanity has left Earth. Collected material will also be accessible online where viewers will be able remix it themselves. Simultaneously presenting a speculative science-fiction narrative and an experimental, living mini-documentary about the community and moment in which it is performed, ANNI will explore questions of human control over the curation of information and the value of human intuition in identifying signal in the noise of an increasingly algorithmic, data-driven social system.


4:30 - 6 p.m., Fortune Recital Hall, Cummings First Floor
