Artist #1
I’m so tired of juggling day jobs, writing grant proposals which won’t even pay me… I decided to stop complaining & just ask for what I really want - $700 billion for the arts…. because we’re too big to fail!
Wouldn’t it be swell to say - bar bill?? its on me, I’ve got the bucks because - I’m an artist!
Or
need a visit to the Dr.?? No problem of course I have health insurance because - I’m an artist!
I’m starting a new movement (I hope!). Please join in!
PS
The photo up there is of sound artist Jax Deluca of the wonderful Squeaky Wheel where the whole dang project was launched!

The newly revamped Magic Box will make its debut at the Shift Festival in Basel, Switzerland October 22 - 25. Thanks to a grant from the Experimental Television Center I was able to remount the project with the carpentry wizardry of Paul DiPietro.
The box uses the 19th century illusionist trick Pepper’s Ghost and current technologies, Arduino & Isadora. The films that appear inside the box include performances by Luigi Coppola, Johanna Levy & Clara Palavesin with music by Michael Montes & Erik Friedlander.
