Daniel's Interests
|
| General | Resisting the mind numbing suck of commercial media. | | Music | In the past 25 years I have put in thousands of hours listening to recorded and live music from punk to pop, avante-garde to minimalism, folk, world, noise, electronic, etc. etc. etc. I don't have a lot of time to listen these days as I keep my free time reserved for creative work. In the last month I have listened to these artists: Daniel Menche, Boredoms, Smog, Vic Chestnutt, Reich, Cage, Gavin Bryars, Part, Eno, Michael Gordon. | | Movies | Directors: Abbas Kiarostami, Hou Hsiou-Hsien, Tran Anh Hung, Jarmusch, Antonioni, Tsai Ming-Liang, Derek Jarman, anything that makes time stand still and forces me to see more deeply. | | Television | No thanks. | | Books | Mostly tech manuals and exhibition publications. | | Heroes | Pooh, John Cage |

I often take stills during my video shoots and use them in exhibition with installations. I like creating failure using consumer grade technology and embrace the limitations of still images created using video CCDs.

About me:
A native of central New York's Finger Lakes
Region, I currently live in the Pacific
Northwest. As a video artist, composer and
flutist, I work with live musical settings,
electro-acoustic sound design and projected
video as well as traditional format moving
image art, sound art and installation. My work
is a response to environment, memory and the
mundane. Being a full time father, my praxis is
intimately entwined with the ebb and flow of
domesticity. I am actively involved with the local Eugene, OR art scene as the director of the Media Arts
Committee of the DIVA Center. We program time based, new media, sound&video, and traditional format moving image arts.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Other time based, sound&video, new media artists, programmers, producers, enthusiasts. Especially interested in hearing from artists who travel the San Francisco to Seattle/Vancouver corridor. We are always looking for new people to book at the DIVA Center here in Eugene, OR.
