[HvEXAS] TONIGHT | The Official Unofficial TNO Afterparty: Halloween! | Fri. 10/30 @ 9 pm | Daisy Baker's, Troy, NY | Free!

 

(Please forward / re-distribute as you see fit...)

The Official Unofficial Troy Night Out 
Afterparty
(presented by Goodship & Daisy Baker's)

Friday October 30th , 2009
9 pm to 2 am
Daisy Baker's
33 2nd Street, Troy, New York, 12180
FREE! / got to be 18 to get in (ID required)

Good lords and good devils, fear not we have emerged. 

Some planning and life issues held up the TNO afterparty this month but it is finally all in effect to provide any and all of you with a great Friday night of tomfoolery if interested.

We understand it is late notice, but the night is absolutely free and usually gets to be quite the ruckus. Pre game here, post game here, whatever you like. 

Music from mcgillicuddy, white lotus, back from japan, jenkins, looks to be a good time for all. 

Costumes and dancing highly recommended!

[HvEXAS] EMPAC | Workspace Unlimited: They Watch + New Nothing Series: Zs and Little Women | October 30

 


Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser.
EMPAC
EXHIBITION + TALK 
Workspace Unlimited: They Watch
Monday – Saturday October 30 – December 16, noon - 6 PM 
Opening reception with the artists: 
  Friday October 30, 5 - 9 PM 
Full Immersion: Art and the 360-degree screen: 
  Tuesday November 17, 7 PM 
Free + Open to the Public

When you play a video game, the virtual world remains confined to the screen. But viewers of They Watch will find themselves inside a virtual world bounded by a 360° projection screen. There, they'll encounter virtual beings or "bots", which watch them and, sometimes, ask them questions. Workspace Unlimited's installation artfully probes the boundary between the virtual and the real, the scripted and the spontaneous, the artificial and the human.

Reservations for viewing are required (they are free!) - they can be made by calling the EMPAC Box Office (518.276.3921).

The opening of They Watch on 10/30 is in conjunction with Troy Night Out.  We will be running the Red Hawk shuttle between the EMPAC east entrance and the Arts Center on River Street between 4:30 + midnight.  Catch it!

Illuminating the physical presence and disappearance of the body, this work addresses the questions: What happens to the body in motion when it becomes a still image? And what becomes of that image when it is returned to the moving body whence it came?
