As always NEoN celebrates its festival with a late night party. Acts include Plastique Fantastique, Verity Brit & Musician U, Fallope & The Tubes and Resident DJ RHL. With a pop up bar and performances amongst our large group exhibition the vast factory space West Ward Works, this night promises to be a visual audible delight.
Plastique Fantastique (UK)
A performance fiction envisaged as a group of human and non-human avatars delivering communiqués from the past and the future. The communiqués are channelled through installations, writing, comics and sound and moving image work and performances, addressing technology, popular and mass media and sacred cultures and also human-machine animals and non-human entities and agents. Over several years, numerous people have produced Plastique Fantastique but there is also a core group producing the performance fiction. Plastique Fantastique was first presented by David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan and developed with long-term collaborators Alex Marzeta and Vanessa Page, and more recently with Mark Jackson. For NE0N 2017, this group will call forth and trap a bit-coin-fairy-spirit to ask it seems questions. The performance – Plastique Fantastique Protocols for the Society for Cutting Up Mun-knee-snakers (S.C.U.M.): I-Valerie-Solaris-AKA-@32ACP-Amazon.co.uk-recommends-‘Pacific-Rim’ may/may-not shoot b1t-c0in-f@iry-sp1r1t) – uses drone-folk-songs, moving image projection, reliquaries and ritual to manifest the block-chain-spirit.
David Burrows, Alex Marzeta, Vanessa Page and Mark Jackson will be performing.
Rites of the Zeitgeber, Verity Brit & Musician ‘U’ (UK)
9 channel video installation, live score performed by musician ‘U’
The Zeitgeber (‘time giver’ or ‘synchroniser’) is honoured by a triadic henge of stacked CRT monitors in which past durations collide with future vacuums. Strange extra-terrestrial topographies are traversed across geological time and the internet. Curious substances are unearthed and lost languages resurrected. Fragments from Mina Loy, J. G. Ballard and Henri Bergson emerge amongst an archaeology of media from Super 8, VHS, to HD. Time bends from matter, history is up-set and the clock is obsolete.
Verity Birt an artist based in London. She studied an MA in Moving Image at the Royal College of Art (2013–2015) and BA in Art Practice at Goldsmiths University of London (2008–2011). She is involved with collaborative research groups; The Future is a Collective Project, Reconfiguring Ruins and a founding member of women artists collective Altai. This summer, Verity was artist in residence at BALTIC and The Newbridge Project in Newcastle. Previous exhibitions include: Our House of Common Weeds; Res.

DJ RHL (UK)
Resident NEoN DJ has been entertaining us since 2010. Djing for about 25 years, he predominately plays Techno but you often find him playing anything dance music related. Spinning old school vinyl sets containing an eclectic mix of old and new stuff. RHL just likes making people dance. Check here for past performances.
Accompanying DJ RHL is ‘The Wanderer‘ aka Naomi Lamb. Naomi works layers of diverse video loops into an ever evolving collage colours textures and shape and intuitively mixies visuals live. She improvises, freestyles and channels the room, customising the ephemeral moving collage in response to the tone of the happening.
For the past 20 years Naomi has been a prolific live video art performer utilising techniques and process that is often associated with the ever growing subculture of VJing and presents under the name of ‘The Wander’. Naomi has an intimate knowledge of not only the process of live video performance but also an wide reaching connections within the VJ community and has performed at many of the leading outdoor music and art festivals in New Zealand with a debut at two English Festivals this summer and she is super please for her first time mixing it up in Scotland to be at NEoN. “
AGK Booth
Yuck ’n Yum hereby invites you to attend the Annual General Karaoke booth at this year’s NEoN at Night. The AGK is a fiercely contested karaoke video competition, getting creative types to make videos that will shock, delight and confound its audience. First staged back in 2010, over the years the AGK has built up a sizeable back catalogue of singalong anthems encompassing everything from pop classics to the most extreme avant garde out there. Now Yuck ’n Yum will bring the AGK archive to NEoN revellers in an audiovisual extravaganza that will overturn everything you ever thought you knew about karaoke convention. This November, Yuck ’n Yum together with NEoN are making a song and dance about it.
About the Artists Yuck ‘n Yum is a curatorial collective formed in Dundee 2008. Until 2013 its main raison d’etre was to make zines and distribute art. The AGK booth is the first of three projects that will kick start a period of activity after a couple of years of hibernation.

This is how I spent my New Year's Eve. I was almost through with my other journal, so I decided to start a new one for the new year. I decided to stay in the Time Life series of the "Life World Library". This book is on India. For some reason I never did anything to the covers of my other visual journals. I thought arting up the cover of this one would be a good start to a fresh start. I really like how it turned out.
This is the 2021 Visual Arts Centre in Scunthorpe, photographed earlier today. I used a 10 stop ND filter to extend the shutter speed in order to make the sky more interesting. I then just had to wait for the sun to break through the clouds and illuminate the building for a few seconds.

Neil Harbisson nos presentará el proceso de creación e implante en la cabeza del eyeborg, un ojo electrónico que le permite escuchar los colores y nos explicará cómo la unión entre un sofware y un cerebro puede crear nuevos sentidos, en su caso el sonocromatismo. También explicará cómo logró que el gobierno británico lo reconozca oficialmente como un cyborg y cómo ha cambiado su vida desde entonces. Finalmente nos hablará de su Fundación Cyborg, una esfuerzo dedicado a ayudar a los humanos a convertirse en cyborgs, a promover el uso de la cibernética y a defender los derechos cyborgs.

On the 31st of October, 2013 VCAD students, faculty and staff wore very nice and extremely creative Halloween costumes. Check out how well the campus was decorated with Halloween theme props, pumpkins and treats. Just by looking at the photos you can feel the spirit of Halloween. Please, post your comments and let us know what you think because we would like to know your thoughts.
Here is what one of the VCAD Fashion Design program student’s says about the college:
“The instructors make sure that I understand the class material and make it clear on what is expected of me to succeed. The instructors are friendly yet business oriented. Some of the instructors are in the industry, which makes them very resourceful for the students. My experience on campus has been very nice. The staff is always nice and helpful.”

"This oil-on-cardboard painting captures my relationship with painting and acting, my two favorite vehicles for self-expression. I’ve always drawn from my inner self to become each of the diverse characters I’ve played, all of them versions of me on the stage of my life. I sit on the edge of the stage reflecting, not acting, but my position references my National Shakespeare Competition performance, where I sat as if in an intimate conversation with the audience. There, I understood for the first time that performance is about connecting people through shared experiences. The pattern on the stage floor resembles a chessboard because the various roles I’ve played feel like chess pieces. I’m not sure what my next move will be, but I’m enjoying the game.”
From Susan Tuttle's online workshop: Visual Poetry 2. The photo was a bit light but I thought I'd try it anyway, not sure if I hit the right balance of light, shadow & tone. Would love to experiment more with this....Any tips? critiques welcome too :)
Photo and texture layers are from my own collection.
Description from website: "Visual Kei is a very bright pink, with a nearly matte finish. Temporary staining is likely (keep off of fabric). *Reformulated in October 2011: Brighter, more intense colour saturation. * 9/2012: Colour amped up a notch yet again.*"
Color: Intense bright blue-pink, medium-dark, not quite purple enough to be fuchsia. Strawberry pink on steroids? It's not bright enough to be considered neon, but it is definitely a bright, statement lipstick.
Finish: Very pigmented but rather sheer satin finish, no shimmer.
Other notes: Like Glamorous Rebel, it is highly pigmented but on the sheer side, giving a stain effect rather than the look of a heavy lipstick. Surprisingly wearable for a hot pink lipstick.
