new work: cave*film cave*wave cave*pics http://www.alansondheim.org/cave033.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/cavefilm.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/cavewaveb.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/cave051.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/cave019.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/cave021.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/cave026.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/cave030.jpg performer: Azure Carter collaborator/production: Kathleen Ottinger whatever else: Alan Sondheim thanks to John Cayley (the Cave is a three-dimensional immersive virtual environment.) in the course of the day, dozens of images, 13 videos, and 6 audio files (combined into 1) were produced. cavefilm is a performance with emanations. cavewaveb is a filtered recording of radio emissions generated by the cave, from long- wave at 162k through shortwave at 21mhz. the stills are production stills. i'm quite excited by this line of work in which interior and exterior are blurred, cave and body entangle. the drum is a nepalese madal. cavewave records the machinery at work, the intensity of radiations producing, through interpretation, surface effect; cavefilm translates surface effect into affect; it is all staging. is the body staged? i don't know, but it solos!
