Artists' Television Access is a cool venue in a very hip and happening San Francisco neighborhood; comfortable theatre chairs, quite a large screen, and friendly operators. One of the operators has a connection for a venue in Copenhagen. Brad spoke with him and, I believe, knows more about this.

The audience sat without stirring, and in silence, except for a few giggles, which, for me, is always a most welcome response. The giggles were heard during the Sandler "guitar" sequence, Tim's "shower" scene, and, as Michael Chang's feet tried to make coffee. Good job, guys.

There was one guy, sitting alone, looking to me like a very serious Per. After the show, he still looked like Per, but his demeanor had reversed. He was jolly, animated, and very talkative, expressing much admiration, appreciation and inspiration.

So the project has some new fans and admirers. Congratulations, everyone.

hi marty and brad,

thank you so much for making this happening. I wish I was there as well - I love SF and haven't been there in a while. I remember that Mission is a great neighborhood (it's where the venue is, right?).

anyway, it makes me very proud that the project is still spreading all over the world. good job everyone! you are a great family to be with.

love,

kika

The Exquisite Corpse Video Project, vol. II, part 1 (U.S. Premiere)

The Exquisite Corpse Video Project (ECVP) is a unique video collaboration among international artists, inspired by the Surrealist invention, the "Exquisite Corpse."

Exquisite Corpse

In the Surrealist 'game', a paper is folded such that each contributor sees only a small portion of the previous contributor's work, and begins his own work from that small portion. When the last participant is finished, the sheet is unfolded to reveal a strangely divergent, yet contiguous form or figure.

Using the semi-blind, sequential method of the surrealists' game, ECVP participants create video art in response to the final ten seconds of the previous member's work. Each member is asked to incorporate these seconds into their piece, creating transitions as they please, until everyone's vision is threaded together into an instigating final "corpse."

Coordinated by the Brazilian artist Kika Nicolela, the ECVP project started in April 2008 with artists who met online at the networking site artreview.com, and, over time, other artists were invited to join in. Only recently could such a fast-paced, pan-global, audiovisual variation of this exercise be produced. The inspiring process of exchange among 'strangers' from around the world illuminates the possibilities of globalized, collective creativity.

Volume 1 of the project was comprised of 9 videos and was released in June 2008. After several worldwide screenings and exhibitions of this volume, more artists joined the project and the second volume was made, which includes 12 new videos made by more than 50 artists from 20 different countries. Each of the 12 videos of the ECVP Vol.2 has a theme, so the artists responded to these themes as well as to the pieces they received from the previous artist.

This evening's screening at Artist's Television Access, will screen the first six of 12 films, followed by a short videoconference Q&A with a panel of participating artists from around the world. Doors open at 8 PM, show is at 8:30 PM.
