Takeshi Murata
New York City-based film and video artist. His artwork uses digital software
design to construct filters through which he runs archival material. The
process can be likened to a digital acid, stripping back the surface information
and remoulding narrative structures. He has had solo exhibitions at Silver
Equinox, Ratio 3, San Francisco, CA (2006) and at Gallery.Sora, Tokyo,
Japan (2007). He has taken part in group shows and international festivals
including ‘Straylight Cavern’ at Cell Projects, London (2009), e-flux video
rental at Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian, Lisbon (2008), DOTMOV festival,
Tokyo (2004) and Aion Experiments at Project Arts Centre, Dublin (2010).
O'Connor & Harris both emerged from the 90's Birmingham industrial music
scene, O’Connor from the Downwards label and Harris as the former
drummer from the cult British band Napalm Death. Their sound works explore
the act of experience and perception, hijacking electronic media aesthetics
and delivering a detailed sonic palette that evokes the latent and primordial
senses. They have contributed to We Can Elude Control, a series of sound-
art performances developed in partnership with Spike Island in 2008.
Mark Titchner
London-based artist who has exhibited internationally and was nominated for
the Turner Prize 2006. His diverse work explores ideas of belief, perception
and alternative systems of psychical and social order. His recent project ‘Feel
Better Now! (Apathy and the New Sincerity)’ was presented at the
Serpentine’s Manifesto Marathon (2009) and ‘Psychosomatic Acid Test’
featured as part of GSK Contemporary at the Royal Academy of Arts (2009).
He has also produced commissions for Channel Four and contributed to the
Ukraine Pavilion at the 2007 Venice Biennale.
