Kate Hartman: The art of wearable communication

via youtube.com

Hey Risa: do you remember that video you helped me make at Banff in 2001: "Throwing Ice Cubes at Mountains"? Kate Hartman reminds me of that a little--an attempt to deal with the enormity of places that cannot be beheld. A small scale avalanche-like gesture in reverse. She was just hired at OCAD. And a TED talk at 28. Not bad.

Risa Horowitz: Blurry Canada

Risa stopped by yesterday kicking off the 1st leg of her cross Canada tour shooting stills and video for her "Blurry Canada" project.  Here's a few pics of the setup as she left this morning--which is a heck of a lot more complicated inside the car than these images reveal.  We took a tour through Ottawa visiting Stephen Harper's place and then paying homage to Louise Bourgeois at Maman at the National Gallery.  Two utter incongruences not 60 seconds drive apart.
If you happen to see a silver Echo with cameras, it's not Google. It's my friend Risa.  Feed her, give her a warm bed, and send her on her merry art-making way.
