Climb
CD Rom for MAC
Cliff Baldwin
Aquebogue, Long Island : Baldwin. 1999

Climb originates from a salvaged reel to reel tape Baldwin found in a dumpster. The shrill choral music begged for an accompanying image that he found in a chocolate factory rejects store. The grainy four-color print of a mountain melds with the audio piece to form the exhausting Climb Mac computer CD-ROM, intended for continuous viewing with a video projector in an empty room. "CLIMB was originally salvaged from a dumpster along with an old reel to reel tape recorder. It was played on the recorder at the speed you hear it and transferred to digital audio format. … CLIMB is intended for continuous viewing with a video projector in an empty room." -- insert.

Mood Ring Home
Mood Ring Home
Barbara Bloom
New York, NY : B. Bloom. 2002

"Imagine an elevator with only one 'random' button that leaves someone at an unknown location. The door opens and voila you're home: a room containing all the amenities for living: a bed, a table and chairs, a kitchen, a couch, a bathroom, etc. Essential to the project is imagining a sense of comfort at the prospect of being at home and having everything one needs, coupled with never knowing exactly where one is. Could the not knowing exist without the usual accompanying panic or discomfort?

"It is said that a house is a machine in which to live. A distinction should be made between a machine and a tool. The machine is expected to fulfill a task for you. A tool is to be used. This house is a tool. It provides an exercise in being comfortable with uncertainty, an exercise in flexibility. It is an invitation to continually adapt your immediate surroundings to your shifting needs. It is an architectural mood ring.

"This is not a place to escape reality. It is a place where one's relationship to the world is heightened through becoming increasingly aware of everyday choices. The house is not some utopian structure, a model or an ideal, nor is it a case house. Maybe it's a learning center or a tool for reflection. Like a meditation whose possibilities become apparent when they are activated by use. A rehearsal hall. A practice room. The CD is a game, a design tool, and a screen saver."
--Barbara Bloom

Mood Ring Home was originally part of the exhibition Trespassing: Houses X Artists at the Bellevue Art Museum in Seattle and the MAK Center in Los Angeles. The program was designed by Douglas Repetto.

Fractal Fields and Fairytales
Fractal Fields and Fairytales
Jeff Brice
Seattle, WA : Brice. 1997

If reading a text is a linear process, then interactive media is a three dimensional experience. The experiencer has the option to go forward or backward, or tunnel to another layer. Information exists as a potential link, the links providing the contex for the content. Information exists as a potential layer in a field of action. This CD-ROM is a non-linear, hyper net of associations. The juxtapositions of text and image and the tunneling through the use of buttons and hypertext creates a three dimensional artistic experience. A three dimensional maze where you are invited to explore the fairytales and myths underlying our postmodern world.

Sade For Fonts Sake
Sade For Fonts Sake
Paul Chan
Brooklyn, NY : National Philistine Digital Press. 2009

Published in conjunction with Paul Chan's monumental digital projection for the 2009 Venice Biennale, Sade for Fonts Sake is a data CD of fonts and digital works that re-imagine the act of typing as a Sadean performance. Each of Chan's fontworks are comprised of a number of idioms and sentence fragments that correspond to the alphanumeric characters on a keyboard, so that a different sexual voice is expressed with each letter typed. Some of the phrases are constructed from the remarks of pornstars, pop culture icons like Monica Lewinsky, and specific characters from the works of the Marquis de Sade, Gertrude Stein, and Holderlin.
