PixelShift introduces exciting new works by 20 students from the IAM Time-Based Composing and Sound & Motion classes. The artists investigate the perception of space while exploring themes of myth, time, social networking, viral campaigns, the real and unreal. The work will be presented through the seemingly simple, yet exceedingly complex art of digitally manipulated pixels within the physical space of multiple graphics monitors. The exhibit features explorations of sound as shape and structure using the computer as a creative visualization tool. Narratives and subliminal messages pepper this collection of work from today’s up-and-coming media artists.
