Installation view, Precarious Inhabitants from Eva Papamargariti at TRANSFER, May 2017. Kelani Nichole on pioneering a new type of gallery : https://thecreativeindependent.com/people/kelani-nichole-on-pioneering-a-new-type-of-gallery/

But a non-N.F.T. digital art work, such as a GIF image backed by a certificate, is unlikely to draw the same price as an N.F.T., because it won’t attract a crowd of aggressive crypto-collectors. Kelani Nichole, the founder of the digital-art gallery TRANSFER, told me that, among the artists in N.F.T. marketplaces, Beeple stands out. His work could at least be considered political satire, which gives it a discernible art-historical lineage. Much of the other work that she’s seen is far less compelling. “It’s this dumb meme or this algorithmic art work that Manfred Mohr did a cooler version of decades ago,” Nichole said. “It’s bragging rights. It’s not about the aesthetics or the objects at all.”

Balancing Act, 2020, Snow Yunxue Fu, 3D Animated GIF

Balancing Act is a 3D animated GIF work that Artist Snow Yunxue Fu made for the "Well Now WTF Exhibition" curated by the awesome team Faith Holland, Wade Wallerstein, Lorna Mills, installed by Kelani Nichole, and hosted by Silicon Valet.

"Balancing Act" depicts a woman marching forward with her head in an ominous cloud, reflecting how one may feel facing the current international pandemic and societal situations.

The work has been featured and reviewed in The New York Times, Art and Design, May 13th, 2020 issue: nyti.ms/2YUVaKC

WADE WALLERSTEIN @habitualtruant Exhibition: Well Now WTF? As a digital curator, going into quarantine I was lucky that none of my planned activities were cancelled. That said, I did co-curate an exhibition alongside Lorna Mills, Faith Holland & exhibition designer Kelani Nichole called Well Now WTF?. The Internet–Museums are closed. School is cancelled. The world is shut off and we’re stuck indoors. All the bread has been sold and Twitter has lost its mind. Fox News is killing off its own demographic. While everything is cancelled, why not have a show? In spite of everything, Silicon Valet opened Well Now WTF?, an online exhibition featuring over 80 artists with moving image practices. With everything going on, we ask ourselves: Well Now WTF? We have no answer, but we do know how to make GIFs. We can come together and use the creative tools at our disposal to build a space for release outside of anxiety-inducing news cycles and banal social media feeds. Well Now WTF? is available online at www.wellnow.wtf. The exhibition is free and open to the public, with a $5 suggested, pay-what-you-wish entry that will be redistributed to the artists contributing work. The exhibition is accompanied by essays by Wade Wallerstein and Seth Barry Watter. Founded in 2019, @silicon.valet is a virtual parking lot for expanded internet practice, serving as a global hub for artists working with the internet and digital materials. In addition to an online exhibition program and near-daily Instagram showcase platform, Silicon Valet offers a virtual residency program offering one artist at a time the opportunity to experiment with algorithmically determined & feed-based display environments. Wade Wallerstein is an anthropologist from the San Francisco Bay Area. His research centers around communication in virtual spaces, new phenomenologies made possible by the digital, and the relationship between digital visual culture and contemporary art. Wallerstein is the founder and Director of Silicon Valet, a virtual parking lot for expanded internet art, where he runs an exhibition platform and digital artist residency program. #wadewallerstein #curatorial #onlineexhibition (en San Francisco, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBrFouGl719/?igshid=emg1jmpkpq2i

Hey Berlin && Transmediale family! 

I am really pleased to invite you to the performance of DCT:SYPHONING during – transmediale 2017 ever elusive –! The DCTs will start Syphoning straight after Morehshin and Daniel's German #ADDITIVISM Cookbook launch, which will take place on Saturday, February 4th, 6pm and features the recipe to read and write in DCT!

Besides the performance I will part take in two smaller events: The release of the Transmediale Reader on Post-digital Practices, Concepts, and Institutions, which will have launch event on Friday the 3th of February and straight after it the Machine Research publication.

This little collection of works released during Transmediale is rather special; its not just 3 printed papers and one artwork. All of them work in connection and together they form some of the little pieces of this little universe I have been working on for a while now; an ecology of compression complexities... thats all very exciting for me and too abstract and complex for a facebook post, but how exciting to think that even the PAL and the Angel of History get to have a cameo! And then there are blocks and wavelets and vectors connecting the dots...

I have to say I am always a bit confused and slightly worried about what it means to 'perform' VR, so lets see how this experiment progresses. But whatever happens, it will be exciting to finally see this work in its final version, after being a work in progress for about 2 years.

======================================

DCT:SYPHONING. The 1000000th (64th) interval.

Conceived by Rosa Menkman

About the work

A modern translation of the 1884 Edwin Abbott Abbott roman "Flatland", explains some of the algorithms at work in digital image compression. 

Inspired by Syphon, an open source software by Tom Butterworth and Anton Marini, in DCT:SYPHONING, an anthropomorphised DCT (Senior) narrates its first SYPHON (data transfer) together with DCT Junior, and their interactions as they translate data from one image compression to a next (aka the “realms of complexity”).

As Senior introduces Junior to the different levels of image plane complexity, they move from the macroblocks (the realm in which they normally resonate), to dither, lines and the more complex realms of wavelets and vectors. Junior does not only react to old compressions technologies, but also the newer, more complex ones which ‘scare' Junior, because of their 'illegibility'.  

Every image plane environment is made in a 3D Unity Level, and per level, artefacts from another realm of compression form the textural basis of the chapter.

Background of the work (DCT, 2015): 

In 2015 Menkman developed DCT for the exhibition "Design my Privacy" commissioned by MOTI museum, Breda, Netherlands, which won a shared first price in the 2015 Crypto Design Challenge. The work DCT (2015) formed the basis for "DCT:SYPHONING. The 1000000th (64th) interval" (2015-2016).

The basic premise of “DCT” (2015):

The legibility of an encrypted message does not just depend on the complexity of the encryption algorithm, but also on the placement of the data of the message. 

Discreet Cosine Transform (DCT) is a mathematical technique, that has been used since 1973, but only became widely implemented in 1992, when the JPEG image compression technology started using it as a core component. In the case of the JPEG compression, a DCT is used to describe a finite set of patterns, called macroblocks, that could be described as the 64 character making up the JPEG image, adding lumo and chroma values (light and color) as ‘intonation’. If an image is compressed correctly, its macroblocks become ‘invisible’, while any incidental trace of the macroblocks is generally ignored as artifact or error. 

Keeping this in mind, Menkman developed DCT, a font that can be used on any TTF supporting device. DCT appropriates the algorithmic aesthetics of JPEG macroblocks to mask its 'secret' message as error. The encrypted message, hidden on the surface of the image is only legible by the ones in the know.

Production history of DCT:SYPHONING

DCT:SYPHONING was first commissioned by the Photographers Gallery in London, for the show Power Point Polemics. 

This version was on display as a powerpoint presentation .ppt (Jan - Apr 2016). 

A 3 channel video installation was conceived for the 2016 Transfer Gallery's show "Transfer Download", first installed at Minnesota Street Project in San Francisco (July - September, 2016)

The final form of DCT:SYPHONING will be in VR, as part of DiMoDA’s Morphe Presence on show right now at RISD, NYC. (jan 6-may14 2017)

DCT:SYPHONING. The 1000000th (64th) interval is dedicated to Nasir Ahmed and Lena JPEG Soderberg.

Alice is a machine for thinking: a virtual chamber for repose and contemplation. It mashes 3D animation, motion-captured ballet and music improvised live in the VR world, and then recaptured and placed in the bodies of music avatars who deform to that same music.  It feeds-back the virtual and the live, blending them together in a liminal, uncanny mix.

The work consists of 2 parallel representations, coinciding in a single exhibition space.  The first is a three-channel high-definition movie projected on three walls. It is a 3D animation rendered anamorphically as a panoramic expanse.  The second is a VR surround environment mapped into the same physical space, built out as Vive VR.  The dual spaces exist simultaneously though each is a construction of different epoques from the art history of representations: the age of capture and the analog camera and the current digital age.  Hart has conceived of this doubling as liminal, a construction made possible through the “queering” of space and likens it to the technology theorist Donna Haraway’s notion of the Cyborg as first described in her 1983 Manifesto, where the writer imagined a Utopian future in which advanced bio-technologies would liberate human culture from the constraints of traditional gender binaries. As liminal, Alice constructs all of VR as a paradigmatic philosopher's hut, an uncanny mix of Wittgenstein and his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, and Alice in Wonderland with its inverted logic.

Alice is a 3 channel XR piece, created for exhibition with a Vive VR environment.  This excerpted 4-minute version was produced for The Transfer "Download," curated by Kelani Nichole, for a special presentation at Christie’s Rockefeller Plaza in conjunction with their ART + TECH Summit on AI from June 25–28, 2019.

Art F City: Next 50 People to Buy an AFC Goth Benefit Ticket Get a Limited Edition T-Shirt!

When: April 18, 2017, 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM Where: Collapsable Hole, 55 Bethune Street, New York, NY Tickets: $75-$2000

    Good news readers! If you’re one of the next 50 people to buy a ticket to the Art F City Goth Benefit, you get a limited edition t-shirt out of the deal. This isn’t any ordinary t-shirt. We worked with designer Phillip Niemeyer to produce this design, which pairs the famous logo of the Bauhaus School of Design—later, appropriated and popularized by the goth band, Bauhaus, with the Art F City Goth Opera logo. Perfectly balanced, this design represents the brave spareness within the best Modernist work, with the courage imbued within goth culture and the art world at large. But act fast. There are only 50 t-shirts and they won’t be available for long.

Whether Bauhaus has been on your playlist since before iTunes existed or you’re a black-lipstick virgin, the April 18th Art F City Goth Benefit is an event for you. The more black you wear, the better your night.

We’re deadly serious. Those who come coupled, and in full goth garb will receive a $50 discount. Show up at the door together, and we’ll hand cuff you for an additional $25. We’re not going so far as to offer neck leashes, but anyone who has had a rib removed for better corset shaping gets in for free.

That’s important because we want the setting to be dark and romantic for Joseph Keckler, who will perform a 20 minute set of some of his greatest goth opera masterpieces. (Get your stage side table ticket for two, for the full date night experience.) It will be a show you won’t forget. While there, artist and Instagram star Sean Fader and crew will take your photo and print it out for you.

Coming to this event should feel good. It means supporting Art F City, one of New York’s most storied online publications—a brave voice in these challenging times, unafraid to take hard positions and lay out what’s at stake. And ultimately it’s this sensibility that’s driving this event. It’s not just that the goth aesthetic has taken over the art world (though it has), but that goth culture, with all its sensitivity, with all its courage, is what’s needed. Surely that’s something to celebrate.

Art F City is a 501c3 and non-profit registered in the State of New York. Your donations are 100 percent tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

TRANSFER is an exhibition space that explores the friction between networked studio practice and its physical instantiation. The gallery was founded in March 2013 to support artists working with computer-based practices by producing solo exhibitions and activations within our walls.

Statement from the Director Kelani Nichole : “Today artists live, work and exhibit on the Internet. They reach a networked global community, often embedding artworks in the everchanging context of streaming images, open data sources, and instant feedback mechanisms that constitute online public space. Their resulting body of work is sometimes best suited for the browser – at TRANSFER the work develops beyond the screen into the physical space of the gallery. TRANSFER operates as a gallery with a spirit of openness. It is a white cube testing new practices, malleable to accommodate internet-based studios with experimental curation and development in the contemporary art market. The gallery explores alternative modes of support for distributed artworks, and considers new formats for exhibition, collection, and appreciation of the art that comes to you through the computer.”
