Experimental Television Center and in-kind donations from mediaThe
foundation inc.)

a memorial fellowship named for the Portuguese Intermedia Artist,
sponsored by the Luso-Americana Foundation and the Fundacao Calouste
Gulbenkian, in Lisbon, coordinated by Isabel Alves, presents an
intermedia performance: Ruben Verdadeiro
"Blue Silent", orchestrated by diverse elements, the
piece tells a story in four moments - a micro-macro relation is
presented in real time; by an
organic fusion of multiple elements, I create conditions that
allow the receiver to choose directions; we dive in to ourselves,
as if we were
reading a book, we sleep for a few minutes, we lose track of time..
, we are totally alone, in absolute silence
Marina Rosenfeld Wednesday 31
"Beginner Monster 2", a solo performance with film including
a sleeve, an arm, a bow, hair, strings, a pair of turntables and
an LP...
