The Eastside Culture Crawl is an annual three day visual arts festival. This event involves artists who work on the east side of Vancouver, BC, Canada in an area bounded by Main Street to Commercial Drive and from First Avenue north to the waterfront. Information of all participants can be found at East Side Culture Crawl

I have been asked to include three sets of three artist books by Lois Klassen and Light Factory Publications in the presentation of Artist Books from the Art in Action category. They will be shown alongside a variety of book projects by eighteen artists at #5, William Clark Studios, 1310 William Street and Clark Drive in Vancouver. The Studio is open Friday, November 16, 5 - 10pm; Saturday and Sunday, November 17 and 18, 11am - 6pm. Come out and support community art!

I have some short video works shown with the rest of the Tempoth

Received confirmation from Sweden about "Film9," the upcoming group video show I'm in for Jan 14 to Feb. 12 at the Arbetets Museum in Norrkoping concerning works having to do with identity by women artists from nine+ countries. If I didn't have to start school Tuesday I would have sent off an application for a travel grant to make it to the show opening in a couple of weeks. That would have been nice as it's only one and a half hours south of Stockholm and I could have seen a friend of mine. The museum where the show is taking place looks pretty cool as I think it used to be a textiles factory at one time. According to the website, the vast majority of the other women in the show are from Estonia, Czech Republic, Finland, Sweden, Latvia, Poland, Lithuania, Norway and Denmark. I'm the only one from Canada.

Mercury Theatre lll will be an unprecedented "outdoor presentation" of video and sound art using the downtown location, Cathedral Park, as a setting to contextualize this year's theme, "The Sub-Station".

For the 2005 theme, artists will attempt to put the location of Cathedral Park into perspective by considering its placement atop 27 floors of Vancouver's electrical sub-station. This sub-station not only connects all of Vancouver as the distribution centre of electrical power, it also suggests hidden worlds, the subterranean workings of the city, and of course, life down below.

In 2003, Mercury Theatre looked at Vancouver as a sci-fi landscape. 2004's program took sci-fi one step further to examine the 'New Barbarians' and the barbarian that is in each and every one of us. Now in 2005, Mercury theatre will take sci-fi to a new level. 'The Sub-station' will be a surface level hive of electronic art forms being fed by the source and outputting back into the world. It looks like sci-fi but it's actually real-fi!

This year's program features a fourteen piece electronic improvised orchestra, four live art performances, and over 25 video submissions from across Canada that will be mixed live for your viewing pleasure.
