Visions of America: Amériques
Audio/Visual Performance conducted by Esa-pekka Salonen, performed by Los Angeles Philharmonic
6th of November, 2014
Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles
_
'The Los Angeles Philharmonic’s multimedia presentation of Edgard Varèse’s Amériques launched the new in/SIGHT series at Walt Disney Concert Hall,The presentation of Amériques is accompanied by the new Anadol site-specific architectural video installation, which was developed to illuminate and enhance the Varèse's composition and to activate the architecture of Walt Disney Concert Hall. The dynamic visual program created by Anadol uses custom-built algorithmic sound analysis to listen and respond to the music in real time, using architecture as a canvas and light as a material. Additionally, the movements of Salonen, as he conducts, will be captured by next generation Microsoft Kinect hardware and 3-D depth camera analysis to inform the visuals displayed. The result was a powerful and immersive experience for the audience that engaged their visual and auditory senses.'
Launching in/SIGHT – the LA Phil's groundbreaking series of concerts with video – this program embodies the vision of the New World as a place of unlimited artistic freedom. Amériques was the first musical piece that Varèse composed upon coming to New York and this project is fittingly the first site-specific audio-visual performance that I produce in the U.S. I approached this collaboration from the standpoint of a non-linear and ephemeral interaction between Salonen, Varèse, and me, and hope that I will be able to transform Varèse’s timeless musical fiction into an immersive visual medium through which a new kind of storytelling will occur. Rather than approaching this medium as a means of escape into some disembodied techno-utopian fantasy, this project sees itself as a means of return. It aims to facilitate a temporary release from our habitual
perceptions and culturally biased assumptions about being in the world, and to enable us, however momentarily, to perceive our own stories and the stories around us freshly.
In a recent interview with the Huffington Post, Anadol stated regarding this work, “Instead of creating a media screen, there will be a story inside the space. What happens if you add a video layer that speaks to the audience in a whole new experience? We're exploring the boundaries of what is real, what is physical, what is virtual…”
I would like to sincerely thank everyone who made this project possible. This project would never have been possible without the tremendous and generous support of Los Angeles Philharmonic, President and CEO Deborah Borda; Vice President of Artistic Planning Chad Smith; Artistic Administrator Meghan Martineau and Concert Operations Manager Taylor Saleeby. I would also like to thank for their open-handed support the University California, Los Angeles, Department of Media Arts’ faculty members, Microsoft Research, and Lili Cheng, Finally and specially I would like to thank Frank Gehry for his dreamful canvas and Esa-Pekka Salonen for his open-minded collaboration with me to discover “New Worlds.”

I love graphic design, but I also love decorating interiors from the finishes to the furniture to the colors on the wall, and of course, the accessories, too! I had a good time working with my client, Dr. Rajul Patel, DDS, in developing the look of her new dental office.

This first brief requires you to play on the idea of gender reversal and visual puns. The brief is set to challenge and enhance work that you have created within your vintage-themed personal ‘style’ in the past. Themes of irony should run through a series of four images which are displayed collectively on one final piece to be submitted. You should interpret the brief in relation and response to recent practitioner’s work of a similar style.
Amongst other practisioners, I looked at the work of YBA's; Tracy Emin and Sarah Lucas for inspiration.
Each of the four images I created is based on or around a visual pun and/or gender reversal.

VISUAL LIBRARIES - Leave your Mark.
A collaborative, visual project which encourages you to sign out a Visual Library Book and ‘Leave Your Mark’.
A Visual Library Book is whatever you want it to be, a sketchbook, a journal, a diary, a notepad.
You can ‘Leave Your Mark’ in whatever way you want, ranging from drawing, writing, sewing, adding photographs, markings, printing and sticking. How you make your marks is entirely up to you. All we ask is that you have fun with the different themes. Just borrow it on your library card with other books and materials. If you are not already a member, just ask the staff to help you.
45 Visual Library Books have been placed in Portsmouth Central Library and each has its own theme ranging from; Portsmouth, My City, When I Open My Eyes, Whilst I Was Waiting, Love, What’s in My Pocket and Memories. The intention is for you to feel free to explore the Visual Library Books and choose a theme that you like.

Tony Seiniger believes in simplicity. At its base, his poster for Jaws is an advertisement to entice audiences to see Steven Spielberg’s movie. Jaws is a horror film and the poster uses the genre’s greatest trope of creating intrigue and suspense through suggestion. An inductive analysis shows that the singular focus of the shark and the unawareness of the swimmer signals an alarm in the viewer. There is no attack, but the dagger-like teeth are a code for danger and the thick, red lettering signifies blood. Both the size of the shark and the depth of the ocean make the slight swimmer insignificant, creating tension through spatial orientation. Ultimately, the poster wants you to fear this shark, but it also wants to interest you enough to buy a ticket to see Jaws in action. But he film, and the poster, also became a part of the myth of the dreaded great white shark.

Edward Tufte is coming to Minneapolis for a conference that Mrs. Mamluke will be attending so I'm hoping to get this bad boy autographed :-)
Our neighbors that live a couple of houses up the street invited us in to see their 'little' collection of christmas trees. There were 45 middle to large sized trees and 40-45 smaller ones. Each tree had been decorated along the lines of a certain theme. Besides trees, she had set up miniature Christmas villages replete with figures of people, children, horses and of course, Santa. The attention to detail was minute.
Needless to say, the display was nothing short of a visual extravaganza. We had not seen anything like this before.
These are some of the images from our awesome tour. Of course, a camera cannot do justice to that scene, but I hope you 'get the picture'... :)
