Spacerex crashes my show

While I’m impressed that Will Dailyrest, my estranged ex-collaborator, seems to have gotten his old aerospace gear working and established a solid video feed from space and (supposedly) the future, I’m non-plussed that he removed or backgrounded all my artwork in the case and hot-glued the locks.

If the locksmith or police don’t get there to remove it before the opening this Friday, Feb 14th, please come anyway. He hasn’t messed with the stuff on the walls. Yet.

The show is in the hallway of the Hilton Garden Inn, 130 East Seneca St, Ithaca, NY 14886 until the End of February.

Bob Potts Kinetic Sculpture

Bob Potts is a builder in Trumansburg, New York. He contacted me in 2009 to document kinetic sculptures he’d made and post them, along with an earlier film which had been shot by Peter Carroll. The layout and the format were to match that previous film and the same musician, Peter Dodge, was to do the soundtrack. So my job was to light, shoot, and edit, which I did. I also designed his YouTube Channel which has thousands of subscribers. 
Bob is soft-spoken, intense and multi-talented. He’s a poster child for what a good video can do for an artist. Since he posted his work on YouTube his art career has taken off with shows all over the world and a gallery in Switzerland. The films we made were also featured on the website Colossal.

The Ithaca Journal did a nice profile.
