Inspiration
In A Dream – Best documentary that I’ve seen in quite some time. Passion and energy. Honest and pure. The life of an exceptional artist, the city he took over, and the relationships he had, that both created & destroyed the world around him. Told by the perspective of his son Jeremiah Zagar. Absolutely moving & beautiful. I love when you can see into the eyes of an artist like this, both the good and the bad. It is such fulfilling inspiration for me.

I ran around the Marian Goodman gallery yesterday afternoon excited to absorb some of the most beautiful texture and color that I’ve ever seen. It was the last day of the Gerhard Richter exhibit and I was drawn on impulse to drive down to catch the last hour. While my little camera couldn’t even scratch the surface of collecting all of those beautiful colors & depth, I did my best to take some home with me to share. Here is the result in just a little slide show. Paintings by Richter. Song by Tycho. Make sure you turn HD on when you watch it, and launch it at full screen, for best viewing.

If any of you are in the CT area on this snowy friday evening, I will be projecting some videos over at the City Lights Gallery in Bridgeport from 6-11pm tonight. Thanks to Liz of Paradox Ink for inviting me!
I picked out 10 of my favorite experimental pieces that I worked on in 2009 and this will be the first time they are landing on gallery walls. I’m sure at some point in the evening I’ll end up free-form VJing a bit too.
City Lights gallery is debuting their first Nu Media show, involving a mixed collection of video art, short films, and animation. Hope to see you!
City Lights Gallery is located at 37 Markle Court Bridgeport, CT 06604 : $5 Entry fee

Kodomo + Danger Monkey town - 1/2/10
Thanks to everyone who made it out on Saturday night! It was another sold out show at Monkey Town and I had so much fun hanging out with all of you. Special thanks to Cutlery for inviting us to play, and special thanks to my brother who made it out to see us for the first time.
Kodomo & I debuted some new material which got a lot of great feedback. Here is an early video version of what I cut up and re-mixed at the show for the new track. The original animation was not created by me, it was black and white, and used for a Raveonettes video.

Hope to see you all at the Kodomo + Danger show tomorrow night at Monkey Town! I can’t think of a better way to bring in the new year…
