Celebrating Reno's Infinite Potential For Absurdity

These are my NadaDada promo videos all together now. Who are these people behind the 'DingDong'? I wanted to show the 'Motelistas' in action. One fact I've learned posting videos–people like to see faces! We're seen in Vegas at the big exhibition and at a couple sexy dress-up parties @ SK James' house. Photo-shoot parties have become a staple of the NadaDada crowd, it's been the best thing for self promotion. Where's the party? right here.

As you can see, these are actually slideshows of photos, no video really, but I've put music to it and timed the visuals to go with the music.

If you're really curious about it, check these out, compare, you'll see the different iterations and how they've changed. The first has no music and the images included got progressively more refined. The music is edited, I've used two songs, but the version of "To Each His Own" changed from the more smarmy lounge version form the GodFather 3 soundtrack and changed to the olden-times version, with the smokey-voice over which I put front & center. So the music is edited. I just had to have his voice over (breakin' it down) right away. The ending song is by Devo, "Mongoloid". Yes I like to juxtapose. Is this art? is it documentary?–I say yes.

I use iPhoto and iMovie to make these videos. They are from my massive collection of photos that have mostly been taken by me. Since I didn't take all these images, I've credited the photogs at the end. And by the way, as it is with YouTube, I don't really get to choose the thumbnail that accompanies the vid and I've seen that this has hurt the videos' rating. I guess they don't want you to have TOOooo much control of your content.

Thanx for watching.

Notes

This site will serve what purpose?

Let's talk about this concept of art in motel rooms and how this art event is different–and how to keep making it STAND OUT. What're we doing in these motel rooms, hmmm?? How much interest has there been? What's it like to attend this thing? Can other cities get involved? Who pays what to whom? When is check out time? If we find porn under the bed do we keep it?

People have a lot of questions to ask so ask away–or answer away–hell, do both.

Serendipity Gets It Upity

serendipity gets it uppity for me because it can feel great to be out of control, not calling the shots, that can feel great. I like art in that way and art making, you know, when a drip just works. Usually it turns out the 'accident' was better than you possibly could have planned out. Well, that's kinda how this show should be seen. 50 artists have exhibitions in rooms next to each other, there's gonna be some juxtaposed serendipity gettin' it uppity in hee-ah.
