Index measures the rate and position of how visitors move in and out of the theater. This data is transformed into sound and video to create a constantly evolving score. Tables allows viewers to operate a series of gramophone players made from repurposed materials. Skateboard parts, construction scraps, and sewing needles are used to create interactive turntables.

Fan Letters

A collaboration between musician Dylan Neely and artist Alex Nathanson, Fan Letters creates installations and live performances with a combination of sound, video, computer programing, and handmade electronic instruments. Their work employs a variety of aesthetic and conceptual approaches, oscillating between noise and chamber music, from experimental cinema to Saturday morning cartoons, and complex political negotiations to school-yard games. Projects combine traditional instruments — such as the violin and video projector — and experimental controllers, among them bicycle wheels and flashlights. www.fanletters.info
