I find that there is so much discussion about computer security and then I come across things like this article with a quote “This is serious security”. I wonder what all the other people who claim they are secure are actually doing. See the article here.

Pictures from the Propeller Dance performance “View Finder” at Arts Court Theatre, November 13, and 14, 2008 can be found on Flickr.

The picture below is the stage set designed and constructed for the Propeller Dance production entitled View Finder at Arts Court Theatre in Ottawa. The two mirrored pieces to the left of the image are designed to be picked up and used by the dancers during the production. To give a sense of scale, the mirrored pieces on the stage are 22 feet across.

As previously mentioned in this blog, I built the set for Propeller Dance’s “ViewFinder” Performance at Arts Court Theatre in Ottawa. Renata Soutter and Alan Shain were interviewed this morning on CBC Radio 1 in Ottawa.

The interview can be heard in Real Audio via the link found on CBC’s Ottawa Morning Website at http://www.cbc.ca/ottawamorning/archives.html on November 14, 2008 under the title of Propeller Dance: unique dance troupe at Arts Court

Emig Research is doing the set design for a dance performance entitled “View Finder” by Propeller Dance to be staged at Arts Court Theatre in Ottawa on November 13th and 14th at 7:30 pm. Tickets are available at the Arts Court Box Office: 613-564-7240. This is a performance by three dancers, Renata Soutter, Shara Weaver, and Alan Shain in an exploration of time and space. More information to follow.

Continuum was originally created as triptych for my 2007 exhibition entitled “Continuum” at Axeneo7, an artist run centre in Gatineau, Canada. There are two of the three on display at the 2008 EBA Open Studio. These large-scale works measuring 352 cm x 200 cm x 38 cm are constructed of high-density plywood, mirror, fluorescent lights, and paint surrounded by a cherry veneer frame.

Find below five different images of the two Continuum works at EBA.

YIMBY is an event taking place at the Gladstone Hotel in Toronto on October 25th. If you are in the neighbourhood, check it out.
