About the artists:

Joshua Goldberg is a dedicated abstractionist, designing and performing on frameworks for improvisatory animation using laptops in club and party situations. He wants your palms to sweat, your pores to open, your pupils to dilate. He is a time junkie, in a destructive fashion, exploring the mutability of time through computers, and investigate the shattering of temporal flow. Teaming up with electronic musician Todd Polenberg aka Habitrail. This duo’s audio visual synergy is featured on the EyeWash 2 DVD. Experience them live, then take them home…

Kate Brehm has a diverse background in the media and performing arts. She worked on staff at NYU’s Center for Advanced Technology, instructed workshops internationally exploring performing with technology, designs hardware set-up for live performance, installation, soundscapes and video content; and is artistic director of imnotlost, producing cabaret evenings of puppets and variety, art exhibits, multi-media performance events, bizarre theatrics, and critical thinking. This night she presents her Movement with Screens performance installation.

Rapahel DiLuzio returns to EyeWash, mixing visuals to the sounds of classical musicians Eric Haeker, Ben Camp, and Michelle Bishop of Arts In Motion. This Professor of New Media at the University of Maine is not just sitting on his scholastic laurels, he is out there making the work work, striving to find a balance between the new media of today and its place with the classic arts; his collaboration with the Philadelphia ensemble is no exception.

Jasper Cook (bunniboi) and Kat Black (kattyb) are the VJ Zoo crew. They live in Perth, Western Australia, the most remote capital city on the planet, so you have to make your own fun there. Their visual style ranges from retro to abstract to rough and edgy, and use a lot of archival movies, grungy hand-held industrial-looking footage and scratch and flare type effects. Currently on an international tour through Europe and Asia, they round out the continents by making a special stop in NYC for a show at EyeWash. Zoo, thanks for coming all this way and making us sooo internacionale!
