New Media Curation (NMC) is a move towards simplifying the curation of technological artworks. From action/response works supported by floorpads, to laser or image recognition installations, to generative and augmented works, NMC can assist you in facilitating, administering, and actualizing your exhibition both nationally and internationally.

Nauru Elegies - Int'l Biennial of Media Arts
Exhibition Venue | Blindside Gallery | 7 Floor | Nicholas Building - 37 Swanston Street | Melbourne
Exhibition Dates| Friday 19 February - Tuesday 6 March 2010
Launch Date| Thursday 18 February 2010 @ 6pm
Public Programme| Nauru Elegies Performance by Paul D. Miller | Date & Location TBA
After prototyping in Beta_space, Experimenta approached us to include Nauru Elegies in their International Biennial of Media Arts: UTOPIA NOW, launching a finished version of the exhibition in Melbourne at Blindside Gallery. The artists spent eight weeks with a production crew on Nauru filming, researching, and interviewing the inhabitants to provide the global audience with a cross section of contemporary existence through the mediums of sound, music, and light; highlighting how an isolated culture struggles to survive at the cusp of financial, cultural, and social displacement. This viewpoint will now tour Australia over 2010!

Hysterical fatigue...a by product of the superwoman stereotype?
Wow, I'm tired. Are superwomen allowed to be so?
The show by the DJ and the Architect I hosted over December and January have scored me all sorts of contracts and I'm so busy, I can barely help organize their new exhibition in Melbourne; Experimenta's UTOPIA NOW! Media Arts Biennial...how cool is THAT?!?! As happy and as grateful that I am in my recent successes (I was also able to garner an audience with PHM Director Dr. Dawn Casey to discuss <assistant> curatorial opportunities at the museum...whoo hoo!), I just can't seem to side-step my numbing, hysterical fatigue that makes me scream at security guards that won't let me park at my own work and boyfriends who grab my stomach chub (sorry guys, sorry Aram).
