]]> Scalability is a 3:45 minute single channel video piece with no audio. This video is a portrait of two artist Maryna Makarenko and Colin Rosati. Through using accessible imaging tools such as Google Hangouts the artists are able to capture their own portraits. Google Hangouts is a tool in which self-documentation is not the focus of the technology. By mixing non explicit tools as well as simultaneous video cameras Makarenko and Rosati are utilizing imaging technologies that index and image the world- creating unintentional documentation such as data, reflection of the tools used and portraiture. This video explore portraiture in a networked context where lagging internet, miscommunication and the framing of body in relation to the screen is characteristics of the medium. Makarenko and Rosati are using accessible tools to capture gesture, body to screen/camera relationship. The simultaneity of camera depicts the body as fragmented with in physical, virtual and psychological space.

]]> Autocidal After Image is a short, six-minute digital video animation that explores video and video infrastructures in the context of online networks, systems and databases. In the work, multiple found online videos compose a 3D space – rendering each image as virtual objects to examined. Exploring John Berger’s idea of flattened media forms, the work plays with ideas of online video framing, fragmentation, and casual directionless surfing. Exploring the role of the artist as a filter, Rosati employs the metadata generated through users, networks and infrastructures to frame and organize information that privileges the often-privatized usage of online services. The aim is to reveal and question online video-based infrastructure, including that of the user behind the screen, video cameras, video aggregation, compression, network commodification, video databases, and content consumption.
