Digital projection.

In presence of the artists.

IN SITU II is a series of events that presents singular audiovisual works and live sound performances by local artists with a passion for film material, audiovisual experimentation and sound art.

Real time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise, in live collaboration with Derek Gedalecia (Headboggle) and his layered keyboard compositions. A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Saturated colors. The subtlest of tints. Glitches in crowdsourced data. Jittery zooms and pans. Orphaned information and free-floating symbology.

Sixteen experimental short films created 1965-2017 that provide a vivid account of creative processes used in the recycling of images in experimental moving image art.

Thursday, March 2nd, artist/software engineer Eric Theise will perform A Synesthete’s Atlas, an improvised cartographic salon piece using projected maps based on OpenStreetMap data. Since the premiere performance in Lisbon, April 2022, Theise has collaborated with improvising musicians across the US; this will be his first solo performance, with maps being manipulated to a soundscape inspired by the Library's cartographic and geographic holdings.
