SUMMARY:16mm Film in the Darkroom: Rayographs with Carl Lee
DESCRIPTION:Sunday November 3\n12pm-4pm\n$120 (10%discount for members)\n  \nJoin us for another experimental 16mm film workshop in the darkroom\, led by filmmaker Carl Lee!  Dive into the art of rayographs—also known as photograms—using black and white 16mm motion picture film. \nIn this special one-day hands-on experience\, you’ll explore the world of camera-less filmmaking by exposing intriguing found objects on strips of film with photo enlargers. Then\, you’ll roll up your sleeves and hand-process your creations in the darkroom\, bringing your experiments to life. \nBut that’s not all! You’ll also learn to use a film splicer\, allowing you to weave your film strips together into a short film. The workshop will culminate in a film screening\, where you can showcase your work and see how your ideas transform on the big screen. \nDon’t miss this chance to experiment\, create\, and connect with fellow artists in a fun and supportive environment. \nNOTE: This workshop is very hands-on and potentially a little splashy\, so dress appropriately (gloves and aprons will be provided\, but please don’t wear your favorite outfit!) \nAll equipment and materials will be provided. We will have a collection of found objects to experiment with\, and participants are invited to bring personal objects as well. We will meet in the darkroom in Upton Hall at Buffalo State University. More info and arrival instructions will be provided after registration. \n  \n  \n \n  \n  \n \n  \nInstructor Bio: \nCarl Lee is a media artist based in Buffalo\, NY. Since the 1990s he has been making films\, videos\, and multi-channel installations that explore the built environment and personal spaces\, perception\, and the precarity of images on our screens and in our heads. His most recent work\, Unity Island\, a three-screen installation shot on 16mm film\, is a personal exploration of a unique\, multi-layered piece of land situated between the Niagara River and Black Rock Canal in Buffalo\, NY. His work has been screened and exhibited nationally and internationally.  \nhttp://carljlee.com \n  \nAll images courtesy Carl Lee

SUMMARY:Football Practice: Speculative Football Players with Kristin McWharter
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, May 22\, 2024\, 6–8 pm ET\nOnline over Zoom\nFree or suggested donation; register below\nJoin us for this workshop intensive in which participants explore the cultural impact of American football and collectively contribute to a new simulation of the sport. Part performance lecture\, part interactive imagining\, participants will be given prompts to write and craft new players for the artists Football Practice simulation software. Each workshop designs and “drafts” two players into the scrimmage of the software\, directly shaping the speculative imaging of the game. Inspired by the surrealist game Exquisite Corpses and video game sports simulations such as Madden\, this workshop discusses the importance of consent\, aggression\, and competitive drive as participants playfully imagine speculative football futures in real time. \nThe workshop is open to anyone regardless of their knowledge or interest in football. A Zoom link will be shared with your email address near the event date. \nThis workshop is presented as part of an ongoing project by Kristin McWharter. To learn more\, click here. \nBiography of the artist\nKristin McWharter uses performance and play to interrogate the relationship between competition and intimacy. Her work conjoins viewers within immersive sculptural installations and viewer- inclusive performances that critically fuse folk games within virtual and augmented worlds. Her software installations and performative objects incorporate experimental technologies and playful interaction to produce performances that speculate upon alternative forms of social behavior. Inspired by 20th century sports narrative\, collective decision making\, and technology as a contemporary spiritual authority\, her work blurs the boundaries of intimacy and hype culture to challenge viewer relationships to affection and competitive drive. Her work has been exhibited at The Hammer Museum\, Walt Disney Concert Hall\, Bangkok Arts and Cultural Center\, Ars Electronica\, Museo Altillo Beni\, and FILE Festival among others. McWharter received her MFA from UCLA in Design Media Arts and is currently an Assistant Professor in Art & Technology Studies at SAIC. \nImage description: Two digital avatars on a digital grassy field. The figures are wearing American football outfits. Both the outfits and the grassy field look like they were crocheted.
